Some garden sheds serve multiple duty as an all-season greenhouse or a cozy solarium with a slanted clear roof, potting benches and storage space for all your gardening tools and even small equipment, like riding lawn mowers.
When choosing the location for your garden shed, your top priorities should be a clear area that will provide maximum exposure to sunlight, especially important for fall and winter gardening, and a level, well-draining ground surface.
If you have a greenhouse and limited space for storing your gardening tools, you can build a small 4x6-foot garden shed with doors expanding the width for easy access and some shelving for your pots and soil, for about $500 in a very nice, weather resistant cedar. These types of sheds look very nice on a deck near a pool and can also be used for storing pool toys.
