WINTER GROWING

Anne & Tony Farrera of Brooksville, Maine, walk down their slope to close up their greenhouse for the night. it is February.

Inside it is toasty although we had more snow the evening before. Tony started a Greenhouse program a few years ago. He and a friend, Tom Adamo, build numerous greenhouses of various sizes and styles in the area, including one for the local elementary school.  They took orders, ordered materials  in bulk, carefully researched, then had them delivered. participants picked them up. the structures were built by participants sharing the work with Tony & Tom.. Tony & Anne harvest greens all winter. remarkable considering zub zero nights.
