It extended our growing season. We were able to start seedlings in March. Up north where I live, as you can see by the photo, our winter is harsh and stays around till April.
We've been growing vegetables, herbs and flowers for our local food bank, Fare Share, for a few years. Our own freezer was full too. We gave 1839 lbs. in 2024, almost a ton!
My greenhouse was on a pretty steep slope so I had to raise one whole end about 3.5 ft off the ground which required a lot of additional work. The raised end also has a 10x10 ft deck. I think it turned out very nice.
