At least 20 North Carolina victims of Hurricane Helene are receiving some unexpected help from a Pennsylvania Amish community...
If the county approves Tiny Homes...these Tiny Homes are the way to go...
(Fema ran out of money in October after giving it to 220 million unvetted illegal aliens over the last 4 years under Joe Bribem...)

 
I believe the Amish made 100 or better tiny houses the officials said were not to code and refused to let the people use them! Maybe this time it will turn out better. The Feds right down to the local officials want these people off their lands! Refusing help, stealing equipment meant for helping the people, who cares if a temp structure isn't to code? I really hope Trump takes a good hard look at this.
 
Every amish community seems to have shed builders. Call them tiny homes if you want, but it's a roof over your head.
The evening before our annual "heritage day" celebration, we have a locals only cook out and then we play what I call, street games. We sit in the bleachers that were readied anyway for the parade the next morning, and one guy announces "a game" Usually there's about 200 of us there. One year, tractors pulled in 3 large piles of building supplies and plans. Three teams of 4 amish guys were set up at each pile and the first team to complete an entire shed one. The winner finished in about 45 minutes. The sheds were auctioned off afterwards and the money went to the amish medical fund. These guys were amazing to watch.
 
Not much, but the wood stove keeps it toasty. Before we built our house I bought one of those sheds, that are built everywhere now days, and lived in it for a short time. It was spring time and I just about froze to death.
It's Amish construction....not Lowes. Then the insides are completely finished out. They used $300k of their own money to get started.

The shed I bought was NOT a Lowes shed. It was quality construction 12×16 and I finished the inside. Its the wifes garden shed now. Are you saying one of those tiny shacks cost $300,000? We gotta be talking about something else.
Fyi: the Amish don't have a monopoly on quality construction.
