Houses Are Main Crop On 40 Acre Farm Near Columbus
Charles Gleason sixty seven year old and his son Walt built about 70 moveable two and three bedroom houses on their 40 acre Columbus, Ohio area farm over ten years. After farming losses and medical costs, Gleason taught Walt carpentry and the duo now regularly tackles multiple houses under construction, shipping finished homes to Kansas, Missouri and Oklahoma. Their underground residence doubles as a shop and living space, while the pair continue to stay busy building for others rather than finishing their own home.
