Don’t you have a super-short growing season?

Don’t you have a super-short growing season?

Yes, and it can be over come.

Many have built green houses or ‘hoop’ houses.

However, being up north, we have more daylight. I live in the mid-state region, and the sun is up before 5AM. It’s still light outside at 8:30pm

In the fall you protect from frosty nights with plastic covers or old bedspreads.

Here is a video of a very successful farmer who uses ‘rolling’ greenhouses.
