From The Ground Up

From The Ground Up is a large side quest in The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild. It begins the construction of a new village called Tarrey Town in the Akkala Region, NE Hyrule. This side quest can only be started after completing the Hylian Homeowner side quest in Hateno Village.

Locate Hudson working on constructing the new village. He will talk about how there’s nothing in the new town. The first step is to bring 10 bundles of wood. These can be obtained by chopping down trees and then chopping the fallen trunk. View the bundles in the materials section of your inventory.

After giving Hudson the wood bundles, he will ask you to bring someone with brute physical strength to move the boulders. Travel to the Southern Mine on Death Mountain to find two Gorons hard at work during the day and resting at night. Speak with Grayson and Pelison at night to tell them about Tarrey Town.

Return to Tarrey Town and speak with Hudson. He will tell you Grayson and Pelison are great matches because of their name. This will be a pattern as you find more people. Moreover, Pelison has set up a shop selling the ore found in boulders. Before the next step can be started, you will need 20 bundles of wood.
