our dtr and her husband bought a greenhouse and assemble it.....it was lightweight but seemed sturdy enough....

sure enough, a wind storm came and off it went down the road....

we put the same thing up but husband anchored it well....don't know how we'll prevent snow or ice buildup but I hope we figure it out before winter.....

Oh, yes. Had my old greenhouse ‘go for a ride’ before we got it anchored in!

We get a lot of snow here, and even with the weaker winter sun, the snow melts right off of the greenhouse, sunny day or not.

Other than that, a sturdy push broom should do the trick.

No damaging winds, yesterday, thank goodness! We ended up with a full inch of much-needed rain. I had one MONSTER Sunflower tip over and smoosh some of the bush beans, but Beau is going to put in a sturdier stake for me later today.
