What is The Story Barn?

It's a cozy, creative, converted horse barn in Somers, CT, set back on seven acres of land. It's a place to encourage, inspire and explore the unique free-to-be story within you and the ones you love, of any and every age.

Founded by the Bowers and LaJoie families of Frieda B., LLC, The Story Barn is home to a number of wonderful things.

* the national-award-winning Frieda B. book series, authored by Renata Bowers, which we publish and share with the world from right here in Somers, CT;

* an open creative space and monthly schedule of events, something for every age, each event designed to encourage the story within;

* seven acres of land to explore: the babbling brook, towering tree canopies, a gazebo and fire pit, an 1800s watering trough turned into a fountain, a pond, a swing, and lots and lots of room to run;

* peace, play, imagination, contemplation, family, community... your story and the stories of those you love.
