Building a Farm Stand for Firewood and Farm Fresh Eggs - DIY

Описание: Join us as we build our DIY roadside farm stand from scratch.

This farm stand build was almost entirely free as we had milled our own wood from trees on our farm and utilized left over materials from previous DIY projects. The only materials we purchased was the metal for the roof and the cooler for the eggs. Both items were bought at a discount thanks to thrifty finds in-store and on Facebook marketplace.

The frame of this farm stand was built using 4x4 eastern white cedar posts and put together using lap/half lap joints. Rafters were made from true 2 inch rough cut lumber. The siding was made from white pine and the back and roof was made from red pine all milled on our homestead last summer using an Alaskan Mill. We love the rustic farmhouse look so we chose to utilize live edge elements in our farm stand.

We will be moving this farm stand down to the end of our driveway. We live in the woods of New Hampshire. We have lots of potential customers as our road sits on a dirt road that people love to walk down alongside the lake, among the trees. The original hope for this DIY farmstand is to sell eggs, firewood, and kindling bundles. But the possibilities are endless with fruit, vegetable, and flower garden surplus, jams, jellies, breads and other baked goods!
