Want to build a greenhouse? Of course you do... I didn't take as many pictures as I was planning to, but here are a few showing my greenhouse going up. It is still a work in progress, so I'll add some more as I find them (or take them)

![]() Just the frame (professionally assembled) |
![]() More frame (they do nice work...) |
