What if your wife came to you and told you she wanted to plant a garden in your back yard? Would you have room in your garage to store all that extra equipment? If you are like me the answer is probably a resounding No! Imagine what it would be like if you had an Outdoor Garden Shed for all that extra equipment. As you read every word of this article you will begin to see how this is possible.
Well this predicament happened to my buddy recently, his wife told him she wanted to plant a vegetable garden and went out and bought bags of dirt, pots (all shapes and sizes) as well as the wheel barrow, hoes, shovels and other assorted equipment.
In just a short while she realized that all of this extra stuff would not fit in our already crowded garage and he realized he had to get some really good plans in order to build the love of his life a nice little Outdoor Garden Shed.
He had a little experience at building a few small projects in the past but he never realized how much he actually needed to consider when building a structure of this magnitude.
When checking out sets of plans please consider the snow(if you live in a heavy snow area). Snow is very heavy and if the shed is not build correctly can collapse under the weight. Most plans come with a fairly flat roof pitch and use small spec lumber which will collapse, so you need to get plans that allow for this and give you the proper specs and roof pitch for snow.
I also recommend that you get a set of plans for a shed that is a little larger than you think you need, because my friend it will fill up a lot faster than you think.
One more thing to consider is how hot it gets in your area. Make sure the plans include roof venting since it can get pretty hot in there and could also damage some of the shed's contents. Also, please do not try to save money by using cheap lumber as it will rot quickly, always use pressure treated wood and then seal and paint it so it will last for several years.
An outdoor garden shed is a nice addition to your property and well worth the investment. Just be sure that If you are going to build it yourself get a good set of plans because it will save you money, time and frustration.
