June 23 Column: Hoop House and Greenhouse

hoop house and greenhouse

hoop house and greenhouseI get a lot of questions about how I use my hoop house and greenhouse. Because of that, I felt it should be the topic for one of my garden columns. Well, today’s the day! Here’s a link to it in The Spokesman-Review: Hoop houses and greenhouses help extend garden season.

I also shot a video of both the hoop house and greenhouse set-ups because I figured that would be easier than trying to visualize everything.

But before we get into the video, I wanted to provide you with a link to the blog post I wrote back when we built our hoop house. In it, I embedded a video of the construction list and I provided a supply list. I’m not necessarily encouraging you to build the same exact thing, but it gives you some ideas.

Bill designed the hoop house and figured out what we’d need to do it. I’m always so appreciative of his help because I’m not very good at figuring out things like that!

You can also find additional information on growing veggies through the winter by going to the posts I’ve categorized under “winter garden.”

Regarding the watering set-up in our greenhouse, I wrote a blog post about that, too! 

OK, here’s the quick video tour of the hoop house and greenhouse. Have a great week!
