Here’s an excellent example of what can be accomplished with a year round greenhouse in cold weather climate. This particular greenhouse is in Colorado which is cold for much of the year, but inside this cozy dome greenhouse, the plants are growing happily. Take a tour with Buckhorn Gardens manager and permaculturist Breigh Peterson. It’s inspiring to view the greenhouse structure with its interplay of light and water, warmth and air. It also has curved raised beds of vegetables and flowers; fish tanks moderating the temperature; vertical trellises and shelves to use vertical space. Outdoors a huge garden of row crops and a young orchard are complemented by free-roaming chickens and ducks!
