The hoop house is all planted. We opening the door up on sunny days and covering them with frost blankets at night. Every thing looks great after this weekend. Vents have been ordered that will automatically open at around 45-70 degrees. This will help circulate air for improved humidity and cooling the house down during the hear of the day.

Students are now focusing on planting the 4-6 weeks before frost plants; zucchini, cucumbers, broccoli, and cabbage. We hope to plant these in the hoop house as plants are harvested. We are also going to build more 4′ x 4′  raised beds for at least four boxes ourside. Now we only need more soil and a wheelbarrow.
