DIY Projects From Our Farm

Real projects. Real tools. Real results.

Every project starts with an idea and a willingness to build it ourselves. From tiny houses and farm renovations to animal shelters and woodworking projects, we enjoy creating practical solutions with our own hands.

Goose House

Built in just a few days

A simple DIY project built entirely on our Swedish farm. Made with affordable materials and basic tools, this goose house proves that practical, durable builds don’t have to cost a fortune.

From idea to reality

Every project starts with raw timber, careful planning and a lot of hands-on work. We enjoy sharing every step of the process—from the first cut to the finished build.
