![]() By Bubbles | A few years ago, two fellow Master Gardeners wondered if it was possible to construct a simple greenhouse in three hours. Their goal was to teach four people how to build one.

Never would have imagined you could do this in half a day! |
Great detailed article! And the photos of all the folks pitching in reminded me of a good old fashioned barn raising! |

Fun to see the pictures of this going up. I don't have a greenhouse and this might be the perfect thing. Thank you for the good clear instructions. ![]() I garden for the pollinators. |

Hi Jeri! 'Good Master Gardener project for your group too! Thanks for reading article! (Hope you send some rain our way soon). Thanks Tee, we didn't expect to have so many people that were interested in building one. The greenhouse can be deconstructed too and put away until the next year. |
