Let's Begin Again

 Hurricane Ike took our hoophouses down in September. We are determined to try again with a little elbow grease and some help from Conard's friend Eric, they are back up. 

 We are using unheated hoophouses to extend the seasons.  We are able to plant earlier in the spring and protect crops from frost in the fall.  What a delight to play in the soil while the days are still chilly.  We feel these structures are a sustainable way to extend the season in our region.  Our low tech hoophouses are inexpensive, reuseble, movable, and rely on passive solar heat to provide organic food with little effort.  We can't wait to share the first harvest!
