SPP038 Gardening, Greenhouses and Cabin Fever

This week Lisa and I talk about getting out of the house and starting to work in the yard. While Lisa has been hard at work planning her garden and getting everything ready to go, I am a little behind the 8 ball so to speak. I have never taken more than just a passing interest in gardening over the years but this year I decided to build a greenhouse and learn more about what it takes to grow my own food and hopefully have a successful garden in a few months.

My plans for the near future are to put an aquaponics system in the greenhouse because I want to see if I can get the fish that are needed to survive through the winter. Hopefully I can get this system set up before the end of summer.

I say hopefully because this greenhouse has cost me a “little” more than I expected.
