I love to garden.  I never would have figured myself to be a gardener… but I really enjoy it.  In fact, I enjoy it so much that I have accumulated a bunch of gardening related stuff in my garage, and if I don’t do something about it I won’t be able to park my car in the lovely Indiana winters we have here – which would so not be good.

I have decided a shed will be my answer to my garden stuff problems.   Since I am an adventerous kind of person, I decided to build a shed (with some help from my family) and I started looking online for free garden shed plans.  Surprisingly enough, there were some that I actually really liked.  I downloaded them, and printed off the one I like the most.  Next step… going to the home improvement store to get my lumber and supplies.  Then I will – I hope – build this shed and have space in my garage for winter.
