Manfred, it was a 'well established Foundation garden manager' who admonished me to 'be sure to demand a double floor in the shed.' That is sort of the mystery, since he is definitely the sort of gardener that doesn't expect a 'why' in response to his admonition, if you know what I mean. Hence, the mystery. But it seems right that rock powders and 50lb bags of field seed, and wheel plows, etc, do not sit on the cold, cold earth andthat pallets not be put in the shed since they are like giving a tunnel system to rodents... The carpenter I'm working with wants to put 3 ft eaves on the shed to keep it v. dry inside and to compress the clay floor with the Kabota until it is 'smooth enough to sweep with a broom' I'm going to skip windows, but go for a great double door and maybe a light. Currently, the floor represents about half the cost of construction. (materials) Thanks for your good note, Manfred. (I'll look for another!)
