Our soil sucks, and we've got a ton of deer, bobcats, mountain lions and bears; and we get really high winds.

I'm thinking about a prefab greenhouse, particularly as the price of produce is going to go through the roof because of the drought in CA.

Anyone have a recommendation?

I've thought about both, but a girl can only eat so much venison. ;-)

Ok,

Raised beds, a gun, a good sausage recipe, and friends! :P

AND a greenhouse. Remember, I live in the land of "All four seasons in one day? Yup, welcome to Colorado."

I think you have enough property to do this: "underground" greenhouse. I wish I could do it on our property, but I think the city might have an issue with it.

Didn't realize you had embedded the link. Care to make a return visit and help me to build? :mrgreen:
