This Website came about for two reasons:

1. First was a keen interest in backyard gardening and greenhouses (and my new found obsession - Aquaponics)

2. Secondly was a fascination with the Internet and how so many people are able to get their ideas out there for people to see.

However, I haven't posted anything that, after thorough review, I do not believe to be worth while, of interest, or just to be plain entertaining. And I am working my way down the list and am reviewing as I go.

And believe me I have scoured through a lot of Crappy Information to find the gems, or what I believe to be gems, of information offered here.

The Backyard Ecosystem Top Topics of Interest:

• Greenhouse Plans - Build your own (Be sure to Join our Newsletter and you can take a look at the .pdf we made of our Hoop House Build - Step by Step with Pictures.

As a busy guy with a young Family, this is as close to an all around 4 Season Gardening method as I could find. The great Ron Popeil's quote often comes to mind after I leave the greenhouse:, "Set it and Forget it".

1) Building a Hoop House Greenhouse

and
