How We Help

A young man is sitting at a long wooden table in a room with unfinished wooden walls. On the wall behind him are five posters, including one for a general store, a wellness barn, an agri-curious barn with a horse ranch, and an innovator barn with two children using a computer. There is a small television on the table and some items including a computer, a water glass, and a soda can. The room has a striped rug on the floor and a bottle of sanitizer on a bench to the left.

Building Barndos

We Turn Unused Land Into Live Work Opportunities.

By designing and building Barndos together, communities, mentors, and young adults exchange skills and ideas — creating affordable, multifunctional spaces that blend living and working, and making a shared impact on the housing crisis

Creating Builder Incubators

Closing the Skills Gap Together.

Where young adults and mentors co-create career pathways, housing solutions, and community impact — blending Stanford Design Thinking, AI innovation, and hands-on learning to turn ideas into opportunities
