So it begins again...

So we are at it yet again, and even bigger!  Thanks to the Natural Resources  Conservation Service (NRCS - https://www.nrcs.usda.gov/wps/portal/nrcs/site/national/home/)  we qualified for a grant to build a high tunnel! Our local NRCS office in St. Helens, Oregon has been amazing. Only a select number of individuals can qualify for the grant each year, so apply early if you're interested. Anyway, we were approved and thus the process of building another high tunnel has started. The kit we purchased came from Oregon Valley Greenhouse and boy their yard crew is amazing! It took about an hour to load, but they know what they're doing and strapped everything on to ensure it wasn't going anywhere.

Hard to believe that this pile will make a 30' x 72' high tunnel. The only thing not in the picture is the poly for the end walls and the top.
