Detailed Summary
Large Garden Sheds are a perfect place to store gardening tools and supplies. Typically a garden shed has lots of lighting, a gable roof, and has a door entrance on either the long or short side of the shed. Lighting is usually achieved by installing one or more windows. A counter can be build on the inside below the window where potting and gardening tasks can be performed. For the hard core gardeners, this will be a covered porch area for potting plants or sipping iced tea during the long summers.
