The patio bricks we removed became the floor for the greenhouse.
Gary and I filled up the beds with dirt, compost and peat moss.
The next weekend, after the "kit" arrived, a crew came up to help erect the metal structure. It's a good thing that we have smart friends who know a little about putting up buildings because the instructions that came with the "kit" left a lot to be desired.
That same weekend we had another snowstorm, making me glad again to be getting a greenhouse.
This is in May!
As you can see, though, the moisture turned everything green.
Once the metal structure is in place, the sides start to go up.

That is a very impressive looking greenhouse.
What a substantial structure. From the foundations it looked as if you were building a house. Snow in May makes it a necessity - I will stop complaining about our wet weather now that I see the growing conditions you have to contend with.
It's looking great in spite of some weather setbacks. Very nice work!
