Join us as we embark on our biggest project yet building an offgrid workshop on our Alaskan homestead! In this first episode of our workshop build series, we're tackling the foundation and subfloor.
What to Expect:

Site selection and preparation in challenging Alaskan terrain
Building a raised pier and post foundation to combat permafrost
Installing 2x6 floor joists for a sturdy base

Watch as we transform our raw land into the beginnings of a functional 12x24 workshop.

❄ Challenges We Face:

Working with frozen ground
Limited daylight hours
Offgrid power constraints

Don't miss out on future episodes where we'll cover framing, insulation, electrical work, and more!
