Hi everyone!  We are officially joining the greenhouse craze.  Here are 8 pictures, linked to my Facebook album.  Still need to get a fan installed and figure out what to do about heating over the winter.  We have A LOT to learn and are excited about this adventure.

I'll make sure to take pictures, William! I need to post pics of the glass panels I have to see if you think they would work well. I also found a huge framed picture window yesterday in an old building my mother in law bought to start her church in. I think it would work perfectly.

Melissa that's what you do is collect what you can as cheap as you can for the roof panels are not cheap by any means. No matter what you take pic.s as you go along and you won't regret it. I would love to see them as you go.

That's what I've been doing, William. My current greenhouse is waaay too small, so my husband and I have been collecting anything we can salvage from estate sales, alley ways, and, since he's an electrician, he brings things home from remodeling jobs. He brought home 12 big panels of frosted glass not too long ago. They look like old shower doors. I think they'd be perfect for the greenhouse. Thank you for sharing your greenhouse project with us! It gives me hope that I'll have mine finished some time in the near future. Very inspirational!

Thank you Melissa It has been a long 2 years since I took on the project from the time I dug out the dirt and mad a flat spot for my raised beds and making a pond for water to settle in which is were the Green House. I dug a trench to drain the water and installed drain pipe for this situation. Over the 2 years I went to garage sales and estate sales and picked up things I knew I would be needing to build with.

Thank you Robbie it will take a little while. When spring comes around I hope to have it working for me and no more buying tomato plants.
