Welcome to my blog, Florida Hobby Farm. I have been building the hobby farm on a five acre tract of country property in zone 9b in Central Florida since late 2013. You are welcome to follow my periodic updates as I grow and maintain my raised bed vegetable garden, food forest, fruit and muscadine orchard, etc.

THE FIVE ACRES
The weekend cabin nearing completion
Here is the cabin as it sets today. Much left to do, if I can just stay away from the garden and orchard area and focus. The pressure treated deck is about dry enough to apply the sealant. Need to install the windows and door and complete interior. It sets about 3-4 feet off the ground. Total ares is 8X16 with half being deck and other half covered. Windows on all four side allows 360 degree view. It is a little overkill, I know but supported by 24 4x4 24inches in ground. Deck is 2x6 treated lumber. 2x6 floor joist and rafters. Stud walls are 2x4 on 16 inch centers. Shingled roof and 1/2 inch pressure treated plywood for exterior walls. Have a 3/4 inch plywood floor under roof. It is located between the garden and orchard area and the back lot.
