grew out of writing the best-selling book on gardening in a
greenhouse titled:

Harvesting a
home grown papaya |
Gardener's Companion
by
Shane Smith. After realizing that the resources
in a how-to book quickly go out of date, we decided to
create this site to provide a wealth of up-to-date information and
tips for
those who have a
passion for gardening in greenhouses.
The site has
since grown to include information about constructing a greenhouse
from a kit or from scratch.
You will also find special pages
that discuss:
Heating:
Can you heat
a greenhouse without going broke? You bet! See
Energy Conservation for home Greenhouses.
Solar
Greenhouses: How much sun do you get where you
live? See
Sun Charts.
Why are sun charts important?
It's in the book!

Grow your own winter salads.
Leafy greens require very little heat in order to produce! |
"A
well-designed attached home greenhouse can heat your home, provide fresh
food and flowers and is a green temple that defies winter. It is no longer a
question of whether you can afford a greenhouse, but whether you can afford
to not have a home greenhouse" -
Shane Smith
