So here are a few more arbor pics. It sure makes a nice entrance to the veggie garden and GH area.
The floor of the GH is poured stained concrete. It was poured over the insulation and darkened to make it a more efficient for solar gain. The brick center will let the water drain off the floor and give us access to the water hydrant if we need to repair it. There is also a buried conduit for electrical wires that comes up thru the concrete in the corner.
Here is a nice pic of the walkway
Here is the framing. Ric made a few modifications to make it a bit stronger for our weather. Added some extra metal supports for snow. Screws, caulking and modifications to anchor it to the foundation for wind.
Later on there will be wide benches all around with a higher narrower shelf and some of the metal supports will hold hanging baskets.
I think I should be able to pack a lot of plants into this small GH.
