Construction update - foundation walls are in

In less than a week, Coots Concrete put up forms for our foundation, poured concrete, and took down the forms. We've also got drains in place for our production room. The builders have all of the wall sections built and ready to be assembled, so we should see the building framed up really soon.

Construction is underway

It's been a busy week at the construction site. Our contractor, Sutherland Builders, handled the excavation of our building footprint and we've since begun pouring concrete. The footers are in and now the forms are being put in place. Walls should be poured early next week. The builders also got a head start on framing up some of the wall partitions. Things are moving along.

Lucie and her grandpa monitor construction progress

My little girl, Lucie (8 mos old), visited the site with her grandpa Bill today. In the background is the trench dug for the water line.
