Look what's in our backyard...
A greenhouse*! And it's not going anywhere either. We anchored that thing down good. Hopefully somewhat soon I may be able to share the construction, in stills or maybe a quick video, but for now, here's a photo of the finished greenhouse.
I was able to put the rotating composter* in the greenhouse but I may have to rearrange it as I want to have buckets and totes for plants in the back where it is now.
We dug two trenches that we then put two boards into and back-filled. These were secured by anchors into the ground. The frame of the greenhouse was very easy to put together. We did it as a family on Sunday afternoon. The only day so far that was nice enough to do outside work. {Although as I typed that, the sun has come out, the rain has stopped and the clouds are far off.}
You can see the board a little closer here {I hope}.
There are shelves inside for the smaller plants and starts. Now I just have to get going on the seedlings! We bought some zucchini, spaghetti squash and kale seeds yesterday, along with some garden soil. I have paper egg carton bottoms for starting them.
I'm still so excited when I look out the classroom window and see our greenhouse out there!
