Winter Weather Conditions Call for Stronger Greenhouse Structures
Yesterday we received a call from a customer in Georgia. He had bought some inexpensive light weight coldframes to save money a few years ago, not thinking he had to worry about snow. As he walked through the blowing storm with some employees to clear the snow he watched the structures one by one collapse under the weight.
What if your Order Really could be Delivered Yesterday?
As a greenhouse manufacturer we always joke that the “customer wants it delivered yesterday”. When I go to manufacturing association meetings I hear the theme repeated by all manufacturers, regardless of whether it is a boiler, an airplane, a toothbrush, or a greenhouse, when customers want their order they want it now, the fact that it took one day between wanting a greenhouse and ordering the greenhouse is immaterial. I suspect greenhouse growers might say the same of their retail and wholesale customers.
High Tunnels Protect your Crop from the Elements
With record cold weather across most of North America field crop farmers are likely looking for solutions to help protect their yields.
High Tunnels like the GGS Crop Protector are used by growers for this very reason. Though not a load bearing house ( ie. It is not designed to hold snow or support a crop ), these crop protectors are designed to cover crops in shoulder seasons when frost damage can dramatically affect a farmer’s bottom line.
