Now THAT'S what I call a greenhouse!! lol

love the poly tunnel, not so chuffed about the rugby score , bet you're happy though :-) ....... steve

great comments thanks.. :-))

we live in the middle of a field in the middle of know where, the nearest shop is 3 miles away. we are right on the coast so we do get strong south westerly winds/gales. the old polytunel stood for 4 years and was only taken down to be replaced with a bigger one. we earn our living selling plants and gardening. this year we thought we would try tomatos. its too windy outside here so we grew a few in our old tunnel along with runner beans. they went well so we thought we'd try to sell the produce at the local farmers market. alongside our succulents and shrubs. it does get very hot inside them in the summer, so we have huge doors at each end. watering is a problem as we get our water from and underground spring. we have installed atwo tanks to colect the water from the roof of our shed havent worked out how to collect it of the tunnel. any ideas??

and yes we are happy about the rugby.
come on wales...:-))

Looks good! Good luck with the vegetable selling.

Looks brilliant Sandra. Sounds like you live in a lovely location and what a way to earn a living, great.

That is fabulous, also looking forward to future blogs......

There's plenty of room in there Sandra :o) There's nothing like fresh tomatoes from the greenhouse.

thanks folks..:-))

spent all day sorting out the end bits. just have to make and fit the doors now.

i agree hywel there's nothing like home grown tomatos.

Hi Congratulations on getting the tunnel up. It looks bigger than my garden!
