concrete pier and base plate....however that pier will need to be tied into an oversized concrete footing pad below ground on suitable capacity bearing soil.......even though you will not be supporting much downward roof load these posts will be subjected to tremendous wind load on the end wall and will need to be adequately braced and the foundation will need to be designed to prevent overturning........you need to consult with a structural engineer for sizes and details......Jack
