Organic Greenhouses/Shelters-uses and benefits

smaller high profile

There are many benefits to having a greenhouse structure for organic growing and housing. They are often used a season extender for protecting crops from the elements, blight, and fungus. Since Organic growers and farmers do not use pesticides, this type of protection is often required for some of the more sensitive crops.

The structures are easy to move to allow the expansion of the growing area.These structures can easily help to give you the opportunity to grow more crops in a limited area. What many of our customers also do, particularly with Hanley Caterpillar structures, is start growing the early crops under the protection of the structure, and as the crop is stable enough, they move the structure to be able to start the next planting.

Our structures are also used for organic livestock raising to ensure the animals have a healthy, safe and protected environment out of the elements. They are versatile structures, and only require the changing of clear to white plastic for the various uses. The environment allows the animals to have sunlight, but still get the shade they require.

The combination of the double layer of plastic, roll up sides, and inflator fan, on both the greenhouse and livestock shelters, helps to reduce condensation and keep the structure ventilated. We are excited to be working on a solar powered fan option for those off grid customers or if the structure is out in the field away from electricity as we know many of our organic growers and farmers are in these situations.

Organic Greenhouses/Shelters-uses and benefits

As we recognize and celebrate Organic Week 2020, we want to share a popular article from our website. We thank the organic farmers that go the extra mile for land stewardship and are proud to partner with so many of them. We will be sharing and highlighting some key organic related articles all week.

Eco Farm Day Cornwall

Come see Norm today at Eco Farm Day in Cornwall!

facebook event details

On Common Ground: Farming and food in a shifting climate This year’s theme On Common Ground: Farming and food in a shifting climate aims to widen the scope of the conference by highlighting issues that we all face in the community -including farmer mental health, climate change, and succession planning. As always, we are also planning some fantastic workshops for livestock producers, market gardeners, and crop producers. Our theme recognizes that we are at a particular moment where the urgency of the climate crisis is in the public discourse. Together, we have the potential to solve this crisis by restoring soil health and through soil carbon sequestration. We have an estimated 60 years left of soil based food. If we do not recognize our common ground and scale up efforts massively and immediately, the environmental, economic, and social threats to food and farming will continue to grow each year.
