We are offering a hands on learning experience where you will learn how to extend your growing season through building an enclosed structure called a hoop-house or high tunnel from the ground up. The workshop will consist of some basics about extending your season, and we will share ideas to help if you are gardening in your backyard or growing on a bigger piece of land. Participants should bring clothes to wear for work/weather, and the Stone House will be providing a lunch for the workday, but feel free to bring a snack if you like.
