Redwood lumber is harvested almost entirely from private lands.
These lands are zoned for timber production. The major components of the GardenHouse Kits are panelized to ensure an easy and sure fit. The panelized sections are joined by screws. A power screwdriver, a 6 foot stepladder, and a tape measure are all that is needed for easy assembly. We include an assembly video with each shipped 6' x 8' and 8'x 12' GardenHouse Kit.
