About Us

Stowe Valley Woodcrafts was started by George Townsend in 2018.

The woodcraft business is not a new venture. The original company started out as Wayland Woodcrafts in the early 1970’s.

Through the years the woodcraft business has always been in the background even while I've pursued other professions and degrees  including Architecture and Landscape Architecture. Each of these disiplines have contributed greatly to my design philosophy and approach. Through the years, I have engaged in several design-build businesses which always brought me back to woodcrafts whether it was designing and building houses, additions, renovations, outdoor wooden structures or custom interiors.

Early on, I was taught the art of picture framing by a talented framer while living on Nantucket Island. I have now moved away from Architecture and Landscape Architecture and am now focusing all my time designing and producing a variety of

wooden toys, puzzles, custom woodcrafts, and custom picture framing.
