Permatours hosted a tiny-home building workshop at Diggers Co-op where we built a tiny home on site on top of an old trailer and stone foundation. Working with reclaimed and recycled wood from demolition sites, the total spent on the project was $700, with the most expensive items being the wood stove, screws, and tools.
