Ready to tackle a real construction project from the ground up? Join us for this four-day immersive outdoor building experience where you'll work alongside experienced instructors to construct a full-size backyard shed while learning practical carpentry and construction skills every step of the way.

This hands-on course is designed for beginners, DIY enthusiasts, homeowners, and anyone interested in learning how structures are planned, framed, assembled, and finished. Participants will gain real-world experience using professional tools and techniques while working as part of a collaborative build team.

Over four sessions, you'll learn:

• Site preparation and layout
• Reading plans and measuring accurately
• Floor, wall, and roof framing
• Safe operation of construction tools
• Fastening techniques and structural assembly
• Roofing and exterior finishing basics
• Construction best practices and job-site safety

This is not a demonstration course—you'll be actively building throughout the entire project. By the end of the series, you'll leave with a deeper understanding of residential construction, greater confidence using tools, and the satisfaction of helping create a finished structure.

Instructors: Ron Farino & Jennifer Harris

All required tools, materials, and safety equipment will be provided.

Build something real. Learn skills that last. Experience the satisfaction of creating with your own hands.
