This year's upgrade will bring me inside a nice little 8x14 sugarhouse that delivered this week courtesy of Jamaica Cottage Shop.
Very excited to head over and start planning the interior layout today. The ramp is very steep and I can't imagine keeping my footing with a bit of ice and snow so I'll be replacing that with a 2-3 step staircase in short order. Otherwise I'm very happy. I know it's small, but should I grow ("should"... riiiight) it can be expanded, or will become Dad's shed once I find a bit of land to buy.
