After 21 seasons, the PBS series “The New Yankee Workshop” is coming to and end.

Morash Associates and WGBH announced today that it will cease production. Host Norm Abram will continue his work on PBS series “This Old House.”

“We’ve had a great run, built challenging projects, met wonderful woodworkers, and received loyal support from millions of viewers,” says Norm Abram, host of the show.

“Throughout the show’s run, Norm has proven that he is one of the great craftsmen of our time,” says creator and executive producer Russell Morash.
