Yep, we're having it yet again in 2026! 

Orleans, VT

THE ORIGINAL TINY HOUSE SCENE CAMPOUT WORKSHOP IS BACK!!! Free Camp Sites too!

TINY HOUSE SUMMER CAMP THIRTEEN!!!

SEPTEMBER 12th-13th 2026

WE ALL HELPED BUILD THIS LAST TIME...         

(You can also arrive to hang, set-up and build on FRIDAY the 11th)- so, if able, it's a THREE DAY WORKSHOP IN REALITY. 

...and you're welcome to camp out until Monday too (as we know some of you travel from far away). If you miss Friday, we'll get you caught up- don't worry! AGAIN, ITS A TWO DAY WORKSHOP (SAT AND SUNDAY), BUT YOU ARE WELCOME TO SHOW UP AND HANG, BUILD, SET-UP CAMP ON FRIDAY. 

If you sign up we might also have an option afterwards for an additional day sign ups (an add-on MONDAY to make it a four day event)- stay an extra night, experience more building, head out to pizza with the whole crew, and more. 

Hosted by Deek and Dustin Diedricksen (hosts of HGTV's "Tiny House Builders")

Learn Tiny House Building with US!  (and a TON more!!!!)

Not just watching, not a mere slideshow, YOU will be cutting, sawing hammering, and CREATING!!

We'll all be building, actually BUILDING together! Touring cabins, Live Demos, Guest Speakers, and more! 

FRIDAY is the early arrival and set-up day- with SOME demos planned, but if you can't make it until Saturday that is OK! We'll get you up to speed. 

LEARN BY DOING!

-Forget thinking you'll know how to build a tiny house after attending a festival

-Online courses aren't gonna cut it- sure, they can help a little, but its far from hands-on learning

-And a hotel ballroom talk-only class will fall short in the same way.

Those style courses all have their time and place, but learning by actually doing, while working with other professionals, alongside other students- all while networking and having an AWESOME time, is the way to go! 

Trust us. 

     TOUR a tiny house made with over 90% reused materials and salvage (above)

Much more by way of host/guest announcements will be coming up! We usually have 4-6 hosts on site to help you and instruct via demos. 

We touch on tree house building too, as you'll see four of them on the premises where we camp/teach. 

 COST- the 2/3 day workshop- fully hands-on, with a slew of instructors is $460.00.

PLEASE- PLEASE- PLEASE do the adult-thing and make sure you can attend this and don't have any conflicts before you sign up as this is non-refundable. We WILL give you credit to another workshop though (if you can't make it/have to cancel). We don't even have to do that (most workshops won't) but we will. 

By signing up, you agree to this. So PLEASE quadruple check that you can make this before you sign up. There are no refunds- its too much of hassle to refill your spots if you bow out later on. 

You are also welcome to camp-out on our land to save money (FREE), or you can stay in a local motel on your own in the Barton/Orleans, VT area. Simply google that region for motel and cabin rentals to see your options. 

Any questions- [email protected] 

Things covered- Framing, tool use, efficiency in design/materials (IMPORTANT with the high cost of materials these days!), roofing, alternative building techniques (pros and cons), what NOT to do in your tiny house design (that alone will save you time, headache, and heartache), tiny house layouts, TOUR tiny builds on site, demos on shingling, Japanese techniques, window installation and repair, and then some... 

It'll be fun- ALWAYS is. And all off grid in beautiful Vermont. 

SPACE IS LIMITED! SO don't snooze on this.
