TLDR: Chase and Sarah Morrill have four children — Maggie, Fletcher, Eva, and Nori.
Maggie graduated high school in June 2024 and is now studying biology at the University of Vermont while managing the family’s Italian property on weekends.
Fletcher, in March 2026, finally reached the age where Chase started teaching him nail guns and impact drivers on the job site.
Eva took over producing the From the Woodshed podcast when Maggie left for college.
Nori learned welding from a local metal artisan in Italy. All four are eleventh-generation Mainers.
Chase Morrill is a tenth-generation Mainer. His father Eric built camps across Kennebec County for five decades before dying of cancer in July 2014, three years before Maine Cabin Masters premiered on national television.
Chase has said he grew up hammer in hand, following his father around job sites from the age of ten or twelve, crawling under cabins to drag jacks into position to level sagging foundations.
He learned wastelessness, hard work, and the value of preservation from a man who never got to see his son become a television star.
That context matters when you understand what Chase is doing now with his own children. This is not a celebrity training his kids for the cameras.
This is a tenth-generation craftsman passing the trade to the eleventh generation the same way it has always been passed in his family.
Fletcher and the Nail Guns
In a March 2026 interview with Realtor.com, Chase described a specific threshold moment with his son Fletcher.
“My son Fletcher is finally at an age where he is ready to swing a hammer,” Chase said, “although now it’s more nail guns and impact drivers.”
The word “finally” is doing real work in that sentence. Fletcher is approximately 15 to 16 years old — the same age Chase was when Eric first had him doing serious structural work.
Chase has updated the pedagogy for the modern trades. Where his own training started with manual hammers and hand saws, Fletcher is being introduced to pneumatic fastening systems and high-torque electric tools that allow a teenager to perform heavy framing at industrial speed.
The physical demands are real but the entry point is different.
Chase has also introduced a social dimension his own apprenticeship didn’t have. “It’s great working with him and trying to recruit his friends along the way,” he said.
He actively encourages Fletcher to bring his high school classmates to the job site, turning construction into a shared activity rather than solitary labor. The approach demystifies the trades for local teenagers and presents manual work as something collaborative and worth doing.
Chase was direct about why he is doing this now: “One thing we have all learned is that we aren’t getting any younger, and if we want this to keep going, we need to start sharing our knowledge with younger generations who are interested in working hard, working outdoors, working with their hands, and have fun doing it.”
Maggie and the Italian Olive Harvest
Maggie is the oldest of the four children, approximately 19 to 20 years old as of 2026. She graduated high school in June 2024, celebrated in an episode of the family’s From the Woodshed podcast, and enrolled at the University of Vermont in Burlington that fall to study biology on a pre-medical track.
Before she left for college, she had already become one of the most capable people on the Kennebec crew.
During the three-month renovation of the family’s Fossalto property in Italy, Maggie handled demolition of the lower level — the historic stable section of the stone farmhouse — alongside the professional crew.
She worked through the physically exhausting process of clearing out the space and helped with the structural overhaul of the kitchen, which involved historic stone walls, brick arches, and new balcony stairs.
Chase and Sarah both described her working 12-hour days to ensure the second-floor bedrooms were completed and insulated before winter.
On a subsequent visit to the Italian property, Maggie and Chase’s mother managed the olive harvest from the property’s grove together.
They gathered the olives, transported them to a local press, and produced approximately 40 liters of custom olive oil for family use.
She wrote on social media after the Italy project: “This experience was incredible. It definitely wasn’t all work though, and even when the days were long we all found ways to make it fun, sometimes it was sibling walks or scaling boards to break into the house. It was never boring.”
Maggie now balances her University of Vermont coursework with weekend shifts at the Kennebec Cabin Company retail store in Manchester and manages the ongoing logistics of the family’s Italian property from a distance.
Eva and the Podcast
Eva is approximately 16 to 17 years old as of 2026, and she celebrated her Sweet 16 around August 2025 based on family social media.
When Maggie left for the University of Vermont in fall 2024, Eva stepped into Maggie’s role as the primary producer of From the Woodshed, the weekly podcast hosted by Chase and Ryan Eldridge.
The job is not ceremonial. Eva manages the live broadcast equipment, edits audio, organizes guest scheduling, handles listener question segments, and coordinates public relations for the Kennebec Cabin Company retail store.
The podcast is a meaningful marketing and community outreach channel for the business, and maintaining it professionally while Chase and the crew are on job sites in Maine and beyond requires sustained organizational discipline.
During the Italy project she was described by family members as a rock — steady, reliable, and mature beyond her years despite the intense pace of filming and construction. She appears on camera with characteristic humor and engages the show’s fan base naturally.
Nori and the Italian Metalwork
Nori is the quietest of the four children publicly, approximately mid-to-late teens in 2026. She does not have the same media footprint as Maggie or the on-the-job construction role that Fletcher has developed, but her contribution to the Italy project was distinctive.
Under the guidance of a local Italian metal artisan in Molise, Nori learned the fundamentals of welding and metalwork during the three-month renovation.
She used those skills to create custom decorative and structural elements for the Fossalto farmhouse, expanding her capabilities beyond standard wood-based construction into a specialized artistic medium.
At the same time, she maintained her school curriculum through online platforms, managing weekly assignments despite the filming schedule and the significant time zone difference from Maine. Family and crew members describe her as focused and adaptable under demanding conditions.
The Foster Cabin and Their Grandfather’s Footprints
The clearest expression of what Chase is doing with his children is visible in a Season 7 episode centered on the Foster family cabin. The cabin, originally built in 1871, had been renovated decades earlier by Eric Morrill.
When Chase and Ashley returned to re-renovate the property, they were working in their father’s exact footprints — preserving his handiwork while updating the structure for the next generation of owners.
Eric Morrill died of cancer on July 27, 2014, at 67 years old. He never saw the show that his son built around the values he passed down. Every episode is, in some sense, a continuation of what he started.
What Chase is doing with Fletcher, Maggie, Eva, and Nori is the same thing. The eleventh generation is learning to jack camps, lay mortar, harvest olives, run podcasts, and weld decorative metalwork in Italian farmhouses.
The tools have changed. The purpose hasn’t.
What Comes Next
Chase has not outlined a rigid succession plan for Kennebec Cabin Company. His approach is deliberately open-ended. Maggie is pursuing medicine. The others will find their own paths.
Chase’s stated goal is to ensure his children are equipped with the practical knowledge to maintain their own properties and support their communities — not to hand them an obligation.
What is clear from the March 2026 interview and the Italy spin-off is that the business is being built to outlast the television show. Fletcher represents the potential future of the physical contracting side.
Eva’s media production skills and Maggie’s retail and property management experience demonstrate how the next generation could lead Kennebec from multiple directions simultaneously.
The Waters Run Bed and Breakfast in Monmouth, opening summer 2026, will need people to run it. The Italian olive grove needs harvesting every year.
The podcast needs a producer. The retail store needs staff who understand the brand.
The children are already doing all of it.
How many kids does Chase Morrill have?
Chase and Sarah Morrill have four children: Maggie, Fletcher, Eva, and Nori. They are eleventh-generation Mainers. Maggie, the oldest, graduated high school in June 2024 and is studying biology at the University of Vermont. Fletcher is approximately 15 to 16 years old and began hands-on construction training at Kennebec Cabin Company in 2025-2026. Eva produces the From the Woodshed podcast. Nori learned metalworking and welding during the family’s Italy renovation project.
Are Chase Morrill’s kids on Maine Cabin Masters?
Yes. All four Morrill children have appeared on Maine Cabin Masters and in the Building Italy spin-off. Maggie played a significant role in the Fossalto renovation, handling demolition and kitchen reconstruction alongside the professional crew. Fletcher has transitioned into active construction training on Kennebec job sites. Eva and Nori contributed to the Italy project and appear in family episodes and the From the Woodshed podcast.
What is Maggie Morrill doing now?
Maggie Morrill graduated high school in June 2024 and enrolled at the University of Vermont in Burlington that fall to study biology on a pre-medical track. She continues to work weekend shifts at the Kennebec Cabin Company retail store in Manchester, Maine, and manages the logistics of the family’s Italian property in Fossalto, Molise. She and Chase’s mother managed the olive harvest from the property’s grove on a return visit, producing approximately 40 liters of custom olive oil.
What did Chase Morrill say about training his son Fletcher?
In a March 2026 interview with Realtor.com, Chase Morrill said his son Fletcher had finally reached an age where he was ready to work on the job site: My son Fletcher is finally at an age where he is ready to swing a hammer, although now it’s more nail guns and impact drivers. He added that it was great working with Fletcher and that he was trying to recruit Fletcher’s friends to the job site as well, emphasizing his philosophy of making the trades collaborative and accessible to the next generation.
