Friend Dorothy's New Greenhouse

Dorothy has had a plan to build a greenhouse with PVC pipe and heavy poly for a few years now. She had a plan and then one day she and I were in Canadian Tire where she say a small Utility vehicle tarp shed on sale at a good price. We discussed how well it would work for the framework and she decided to buy it. She took it home and it was the beginning of a beautiful friendship! First, Bob helped her get the frame set up and secured it with extra screws in the frame. Then she attached the 2 end tarp flaps that came with the package - the door end rolls up quite nicely. She built the raised greenhouse beds from scrap pallets she got from work and then she put poly over the center section so lots of sunlight can get into the plants. She is rockin' that greenhouse!
