Mini-Greenhouse/Cold-Frame Design and Installation


In our climate, mini-greenhouse are the key to making the most of the growing season. They make it possible to start seeds early in the spring, and extend the growing season late into the fall. Cold hardy plants, which include several members of the mustard family(broccoli, cauliflower etc.), lettuces, greens and many others, can even be grown year-round in a mini-greenhouse, providing fresh veggies all year- even when there is snow on the ground! We use all local, recycled or discarded materials in our designs.

Above is an example of a cold-frame or mini-greenhouse.
