Updates on Projects from 2018

We are making what seems to be an annual tradition….our once a year blog post summarizing the various projects we built last year. But hey, when you’re building all day, there is not much time for computer work. Here it goes.

We built a greenhouse for the Briggs Avenue Community Garden in Durham. 

 

overhauled a barn.

built a new barn  

constructed a bridge, landscaping, and patio lighting system.

installed a thermally efficient roof on a barn.

constructed a picnic pavilion.

constructed a pack shed with elevated floor.

constructed an extension and catering addition to an event barn.

converted a basement into a processing room.

built the most fabulous mobile chicken coop ever.

 

Our typical yearly update

Yes, we have neglected our blogging duties since March 2016. We have been busy constructing and farming and not posting regularly to social media. Lots of pictures have been taken of the process and posted to our portfolio (link to portfolio). Several highlighted projects are below:

We built 2 vault privies. One for RambleRill Farm and one for the confluence property of the Eno River Association.

We also built a huge horse facility for Rohan Farm in Mebane, NC. Just a few thousand feet of fencing for good measure.  Fence was a combination of woven wire and 3 board. We also performed grading, road relocation, water distribution and hydrants, and a barn.

At other client locations we built fences to contain horses, goats, and chickens, fences to keep out deer, a hay barn converted to an agri-tourism destination, some large chicken runs/aviaries, and some major grading work just to name a few projects.

And our pigs at Busted Bucket Farm got huge!

Updates

Between construction projects and our own farm responsibilities, things got really busy over the last few months, and we didn’t have much time to update the site. From the time of the last post, we built several fences, a Super Moo-tel hoop structure, a vault privy, barn conversion, and several sheds. Below are some pictures of some of the projects.
