12 Neighbours
At Trucarpentry, we pride ourselves on bringing craftsmanship and purpose together in every project. Our journey with the 12 Neighbours Project has been nothing short of transformative—a unique opportunity to create meaningful spaces that serve Fredericton’s community in impactful ways.
Our involvement began with building accessible tiny homes for the micro-village. These homes are more than just structures; they represent hope and stability for residents seeking a fresh start. While on-site, we were approached by Marcel LeBrun, the visionary behind the project, with an exciting challenge: constructing the 12 Neighbours Social Enterprise Centre—a 60×140-foot hub designed to empower the community with resources, opportunities, and connections.
Taking on this large-scale commercial project was an honour and a new milestone for our team. From reviewing plans to beginning construction, we poured our energy, skill, and passion into every detail. The Social Enterprise Centre became a testament to what collaboration and purpose-driven building can achieve.
As the project progressed, we were entrusted with even more responsibility: completing the interior finishes. From cabinetry to countertops, tables, and benches, our team worked tirelessly to bring the vision to life. One standout element of this project was the creation of the Neighbourly Café, a vibrant meeting place for neighbours and the public to connect, enjoy quality food and coffee, and build relationships.
This project is not just a job; it’s a legacy. Walking into the completed spaces and seeing people thrive in an environment we helped create is deeply fulfilling. Working on projects like this is a privilege, where our skills contribute to something greater than ourselves—a community built on purpose, support, and connection.
