Little City Gardens

The time has come to build another shed. For a few months now its been hard to maneuver in our one and only storage shed. Its so full of tools, machines, seeds, harvest bins, baskets, hardware and miscellany that there is no way to store it all and still have room to move. In addition to what we already have, we are about to acquire a few large necessities for our farmers market stand like folding tables, chairs, a tent, a commercial scale, produce boxes and display signs. We can’t go another month without more storage space. So early next week we plan to start constructing a small shed. We put together a materials list and we hope to find at least some of it secondhand because we know there is a lot of wood and other stuff out there going to waste. We will try to buy as little new lumber as possible. This is what we are looking for:

• corrugated steel or tin roofing sheets
• an old door
• any size 2×4’s
• 3/4in plywood
• shed door hardware (hinge, handle, latch)
• a gallon of primer and paint (we’d love to paint the shed dark green but we’ll take another color if its going to waste)

We know we can find a lot of what we need at Building Resources, but if you by any chance have some of these materials lying around in your garage collecting dust and you want to get rid of them, please do let us know and we will come pick up from you!
