Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Build your own passive solar greenhouse for year-round food production in any climate Fresh, local nutrient-dense fruits vegetables are hard to find in winter in cold climates. Growing warm-weather crops like tomatoes, bananas, avocados, and other perennials is nearly impossible using conventional structures. The solution for millions of backyard and small-scale commercial growers is self-heating solar greenhouses. The Year-round Solar Greenhouse is the one-stop guide to designing and building greenhouses that harness and store energy from the sun to create naturally heated, lush growing environments even in the depths of winter, covering principles of solar greenhouse design and siting, glazing material properties and selection, controlling heat loss, ventilation, and construction methods. Additionally, an in-depth section covers sustainable ways of heating the greenhouse without fossil fuels, including using thermal mass and storing heat underground with a ground to air heat exchanger. Variations include attached solar greenhouses, earth sheltered greenhouses, plus integrating hydroponics and aquaponics. More than a dozen case studies from across North America provide inspiration and demonstrate specific challenges and solutions for growing year-round in any climate. Grow your own food, anytime, anywhere using the power of the sun!

Book Synopsis Transformer Greenhouses by : Robert Houghton
Download or read book Transformer Greenhouses written by Robert Houghton and published by . This book was released on 2021-03-15 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You will enjoy food and flowers grown in a multi-season Transformer Greenhouse at a fraction of traditional cost and complexity using a novel, but simple-hinged design with standard materials and solar plastic covering. Quickly switch between covered growing space or fully opened to rain and sun or any place in-between, which makes the same growing space as useful in the summer as in the winter. Part One's rich, full-color photography shows operational possibilities and 3 different working one- and two-sided designs. Part Two includes illustrated construction details for a 12x18 foot greenhouse, with practical ideas for its year-round use and further refinement. You make the sheltering walls of solar transmitting plastic shift to fit the day's weather by using ropes to lower and raise one or both sides that curve over the arched ribs above the growing space. During the many months of the brown-grey lifelessness of the colder seasons, it is truly one of the finer spirit-lifting things in life to walk into the warm scents and sights of edible and colorful plants in a greenhouse. The Transformer Greenhouse's incredible affordability adds to the options for mental and physical health. Equally engaging is to contribute a portion of the crop to services for the food challenged, and to model for local schools the options for carrying out real-world science and math activities in a garden during the actual school year. Our ability to change is key to our survival and thriving. Solve heat venting issues efficiently and effectively. As the warming world increases the frequency of more extreme weather fluctuations in rain, cold and heat, the Transformer Greenhouse's changeability provides an affordable means to match the challenge. Think global, act local. It is possible for one person to build the included design or for a construction crew to complete the design in a day. 8.5x11 inch layout, 52 pages.

If you love the joys of eating home-garden vegetables but always thought those joys had to stop at the end of summer, this book is for you. Eliot Coleman introduces the surprising fact that most of the United States has more winter sunshine than the south of France. He shows how North American gardeners can successfully use that sun to raise a wide variety of traditional winter vegetables in backyard cold frames and plastic covered tunnel greenhouses without supplementary heat. Inside, you’ll also learn: Composting techniques Simple Mineral Amendments Planning and preparing your garden site Seeds for four seasons How to build cold frames, high tunnels, and mobile greenhouses How to cope with snow How to create a root cellar and other storage techniques And much, much more! Coleman expands upon his own experiences with new ideas learned on a winter-vegetable pilgrimage across the ocean to the acknowledged kingdom of vegetable cuisine, the southern part of France, which lies on the 44th parallel, the same latitude as his farm in Maine. This story of sunshine, weather patterns, old limitations and expectations, and new realities is delightfully innovative in the best gardening tradition. Four-Season Harvest will have you feasting on fresh produce from your garden all through the winter. "The man, the farmer, the legend, is Eliot Coleman."—The Atlantic To learn more about the possibility of a four-season farm, please visit Coleman's website www.fourseasonfarm.com.
