Emily, if you've already erected the greenhouse, can you post a couple of photos (inside and out), along with the dimensions? Also describe the site, e.g., Does the structure sit on bare ground? Any overhanging trees?
Many food crops can be nurtured through New England winters in unheated greenhouses or high tunnels, but they all come with caveats. over 10 years ago.
I'd build compost piles in the greenhouse and turn them. As you turn them (adding moisture when needed), you get heat and humidity. At the end of the season, you have lots of nice compost! over 10 years ago.
Is it possible to keep lots of chickens in there under the tables? You would have their heat, humidity, manure and eggs! over 10 years ago.
Thanks for all the great responses. I think I will move the compost tumbler to the greenhouse for the winter. Any tumbler tips are also welcome. I was just told we have a thermal cover for the greenhouse so I will be experimenting with that as well. over 10 years ago.
