Versatility:
Again, the Hoop House is very versatile. A regular screen door was used in the build shown in the picture above. However, you can frame in the front, and back, of the Hoop Houses any way you like.
Use a screen door, make a door, install a vent..... we have included the basics for framing in the ends of the Hoop house using 2x4’s.
With these basics understood, set up of the ends can be completed anyway that you like: larger door, vent, exhaust fan, windows……

If you would like to learn more about gardening in a Hoop House or High tunnel year round, we highly recommend the book:
Four-Season Harvest by Eliot Coleman.
Eliot Coleman’s book Four-Season Harvest is the information source for year round gardening in a Hoop House Greenhouse.
Quote from the book (pg. 111Constructing the High Tunnel):
"Low-cost tunnel greenhouses work so well that if the public were more familiar with them, I think every gardening family would have one. they are a very flexible form of crop protection, since they can be erected quickly and covered or uncovered easily. They provide a protected environment that can appear almost at will - protection that did not exist yesterday but is in place today."
Hoop Houses in the News – They’re making Headlines:
Here are some points that support the choice to go with one of our Hoop House Greenhouse Kits:
Galvanized Steel – will never rust.
Last indefinitely. (for instance – PVC pipe is damaged and becomes brittle from the Sun’s UV Rays, and need to be replaced over time).
Strength behind the Galvanized steel hoops.
In-expensive: We make them ourselves – we don’t have large overhead so we pass the savings on to you. (but don’t be fooled – they are not cheaply constructed – we use a standard 1 and 3/8” Galvanized steel tubing – so they will not rust, and are a sturdy and heavy duty Hoop House)
