Jamaica State Park, Vermont

The next set of photos shows the beginning of the digging process for the foundation. I decided to go with crushed gravel (Blue Stone) for the base of the shed. There were other options such as complete cement or you can just place it on top of the grass. But if I was going to build a shed I wanted to make sure I had something that was semi-permanent (cement would be more difficult to more in the future) and something that gave good drainage for better floor longevity. Again, most of what I implemented in this build was taken from many different sources and I just chose the one that best fit our preferences.
