Free Lumber Into A Productive Goat House

"To create something from nothing is one of the greatest feelings,"

In my last post "$1000 of Free Lumber" I posted how I cut unproductive coconut trees to make coco lumber. This lumber is in very high demand and mainly used as temporary scaffolding for new construction projects.

I do not sell my lumber and I think its actually illegal to sell coconut lumber without a permit. Something I really wanted to do was raise goats and so I decided to build a goat house. I wanted to build the foundation beams out of cement because wood being exposed to the wet soil would quickly rot.

I hope you enjoy the beginning stages of the project. All the pictures and video's in this post were taken on my farm using an OPPO Reno Cellphone.

After the cement posts were put in the house started to take shape

I had a basic drawing and layout designed and printed out for reference

My typical lunch on the farm looks like this. Banana leaf's are always used.

Sand, gravel and sacks of cement are driven in using motorcycles.

I used scrap metal, hammer and a nail to make these number posts for our goat food lines. This is how we keep track of where the food was taken from.

I love how this turned out and I am always happy to recycle

Here you can clearly see the cement posts. The floor of the goat house will have spaces for the poop to fall through. We will use the goat poo poo for fertilizer. This is why the posts were made high and on a hill.
