Welcome to Guildbrook Farm

Guildbrook Farm is a modern homestead in the foothills of Appalachia. We take our audience along on a journey to become more self-reliant by growing our own organic produce, raising animals for dairy and eggs, preparing food for long-term storage, and building off the grid renewable energy systems. In 2017, we moved to raw land where we are building a debt-free energy efficient and disaster resistant ICF mountain home. Join us as we learn to live a simple, sustainable lifestyle.

Installing Composite Steel Deck Pan for Elevated Concrete Slabs

This porch project seems like it's taking forever but we finally finished laying down the steel deck pan for the concrete. Now we're ready to finish sealing the joint between the deck pan and the house, then we can buzz off the ends and start building the pour stop forms.
