Home Greenhouses:

If you are searching for home greenhouses, than I am guessing that it is for growing your own vegetables in your backyard.

This page is about growing vegetables in a Hoop House.

The Hoop House is probably the simplest and most affordableway to set up your own greenhouse to grow year round vegetables.

Using a Hoop House lengthens the growing season on both ends both spring and fall.


The following information could set you up to grow vegetables year round

A garden that is totally self sufficient, other than ventilation and maintenance.


A Hoop House extends the growing season, having the potential to allow for months of extra growing, meaning a lot of extra vegetables.

Not only do you make your garden provide you even more produce for you and your family, you'll have a protected garden that you can visit no matter the weather outside.

The Hoop House not only lengthens the growing season, it also protects from hail, frost, wind, snow, heavy rains.

It also minimizes the amount of "pests", both animal and insect, that could get into your garden.


Interested in the idea of a Greenhouse but don't know how you would grow vegetables continuously throughout the year...

Our top two Resource picks for gardening in a Hoop House:

Both of these books prove to be beneficial to the backyard grower.

Here is why I think that they work so well together.

The Four Season Harvest

Eliot Coleman's book is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to the covered garden, or greenhouse gardening.

He explains, with illustrations, exactly how to create a Hoop House Garden that can produce sustainable food year round with Greenhouse Growing.

The problem is that the concept promotes the need to move the Hoop House throughout the seasons in order to prepare and seed the plant beds in advance.

When the season is ready for the next crop the Hoop House is picked up and moved to that plot of land.

This also allows for crop rotation to keep the gardening plot soil healthy and full of nutrients.

So, this would mean that you would need a larger plot of land. The Four Season Harvest is still a great book for eventhe gardener with the smallest of backyards.

Food4Wealth

This is where Jonathan White's organic gardening system comes in Food4Wealth. This system promotes the building of the soil from scratch, layer by layer.

He promotes the building of a small ecosystem in your own backyard.

This garden is designed and created by mimicking Mother Nature.

The soil is to be left alone, no need for crop rotation, and no need for a huge backyard, or plot of land.
