This Chebacco Chats episode dives into the history of the Stone Barn Farm, from the land’s glacial days, to the Paines and their farm, to the Shea brothers building the stone barn, plus so much more, including how this site is being stewarded for future generations.

Chebacco Chats, our weekly web series, features authors, historians, and others who study and celebrate history, the great place that is Mount Desert Island, and the way the island impacts the wider world.

Chebacco Chats are live on Zoom, and recordings are made available the week after they air.
