Approved submission
I would like to apply for my Wood badge in Homesteading!!!  I've been working towards this ever since PEP became a thing.  I wish there were more things to do and that there was an Iron level but I guess that's what the other badges are for (Animal Care, Food Prep, etc).

Required:  
  Drive wagon backwards

Do at least 3 Wood level items:
  Build a free standing shop or barn - 80 points
  Remove snow/ice for a winter - 10 points
  Replace roof on a large building - 20 points

Extra Straw item:
  Winterize the property - 4 points

Homesteading Oddball projects
  Chicken coop - 20 points
  Garage door opener replacement - 1 point
  Roundwood orchard fence - 20 points
  Chicken coop automatic door - 2 points
  Reloading ammunition - 5 points
  Shelves for peeled logs - 5 points
  Countertop from pallets - 8 points
  Rice threshing bucket - 5 points

Total = 180  (only needed 179.5)
