Raising the Barn

Homestead, Nature, Education

During the skyrocketing lumber prices of 2020, I set out to build a dedicated home for mycarpentry work, repairs, and some storage for lawn mowers and other outdoor equipment.

I designed the 22' x 20' monitor-inspired barn to bring a homestead feel to the property. Working by myself, it took about 10 months to fully finish the job, but I have no regrets! Explore some photos from the construction process below.

If you like the design, I have the complete set of drawings which were approved by our county available for download here.
