Spring Preparations - Emptying the greenhouse

Поделиться
HTML-код
  • Опубликовано: 2 окт 2024
  • With spring in Alaska finally here to stay we start preparations for the greenhouse. The first step is moving all of the stuff we have stored in there somewhere else. Using offcuts from the sawmill, Cody layered a platform for everything to be temporarily moved behind the house.
    Right now storage is our biggest issue, but hopefully that will get better each year as we keep chipping away at projects and infrastructure to our property.

    Good to see it's warming up for you! I think you guys are too ambitious, I'd take a year off from gardening if I were you. Use that time for infrastructure like a woodshed and a shop, maybe put down some rock on your driveway. A covered deck off your house for more space. Keep the vids coming!

    So fortunate that you didn't get any damage on the greenhouse. It looks very big, will you be planting in all, you could use part for storage. It's nice to hear the baby is liking her crib. Hope she starts to sleep nights for you. What will your next build be? a workshop or a storage building.Have you considered in the future a roof over your wood sawmill to protect it and yourselves from both cold and hot weather. Hope it doesn't get too muddy. Have a good week.

    Hey Cody! I’ve seen a lot of great storage areas made by using an old metal container (souped up) painted a cool color, painted with flowers and rabbits (for Rowan to see). They can hold a lot of stuff as a temporary storage or longer term modified with your creative building skills. I don’t know if they would be available in your area, but surely there are shipping zones and/or railway yards? Love your series. ❤

    Hey guys, thanks for the update, great to see you all doing well. Good to see that the greenhouse survived the winter pretty well! Looking forward to next winter, hopefully you'll have the tractor up and running by then which should help with snow clearance. I think a good size snow blower would really help in terms of snow management around the greenhouse etc with less potential for accidents compared to getting a plow in close. Would a shelter logic or similar be an option for storage to make things easier? Stay safe folks, have a great week!

      We will have lots of projects throughout the summer, but the large project goal for this summer is to construct a multi room building for firewood storage, drying lumber, housing the generator and freezer, holding the solar panels, and covering the sawmill.

      She is already getting so big!
      With the comments and threats of reporting to authorities from the outhouse door video we are taking a step back and re-evaluating how we approach showing her in our videos.
      We of course love to show off our baby, but we have to think about what is best for her, and putting her out there for the world to see may not be in her best interest.
