Chris Carnevale and members of the Maroon Corps volunteers joined us to move almost three truckloads of soil into the Growing Dome to level the floor, before we built the planting beds. Riley Blacksmith donated most of the cost of making the planting bed brackets you see here, and Valley Lumber gave us a great price on the rebar, u-bolts and corrugated metal. We hope to complete the planting beds, fill them with soil and plants, build the aquaculture tanks, and wire the climate battery thermostats and fans, all before a Community "Thank You" Potluck we plan to hold from 5 - 8 pm, Sunday, August 1.

ReplyDeleteThe greenhouse looks fantastic, MT! I love the way y'all built your raised beds - the shapes are so organic and curvaceous. It's looking good, man - I look forward to seeing more as things continue to develop and the seasons roll on.
