My partner and I made this wee tunnel house out of dumped hothouse plastic, old vineyard netting, polypipe we found in the forest, and old fence posts. We had to buy some timber for the framing and zip ties to hold the materials together but we got to make use of so many dumped materials.

It’s built to hold all my seedtrays, cuttings, seedlings, and saplings for my garden. I still need to build some shelves inside to help organise the space, tidy up thr edges, and add a door but I’m happy with it for now.

Ignore the pile of logs, they are going in the alleyway to the left and behind the tunnel house as mushroom logs.

    Looks awesome! Have you experimented at all with greenhouses to help extend the growing season?

      I am halfway through building a proper window greenhouse for extended growing so I’ll keep you updated. For now I’m just needing to grow more perennials, seedlings, and trees to establish the newer sections of my garden.

      We don’t have a harsh winter so I’m growing salads, greens, herbs, and cold weather beans right through.
