I've changed this a few times, will probably change it again a few more times before I'm happy (then I'll probably change it again once the greenhouse and all is up and inside). But this is what I have so far, no plants on this yet.

I bought two more raised garden beds to go with the one I currently have. Both are the same type from the same company so I can add it to the one I currently have to make it a different shape or shapes. I've also been working on where to put these raised beds, what/where to plant, companion planting and getting supplies I don't have. There's about a month or two before starting my seeds, trying to decide if I'm going start them inside or outside in the small greenhouse I have.
Still not sure where I'm putting my new greenhouse, our yard is far from level (been on my husband to level it out. He will need to put in a small retaining wall so the soil doesn't run off during the rainy season). I've got an idea of where I'll put it, but the ground needs to be leveled.
I sure can't wait to put the new greenhouse up, and get everything setup inside. I've ordered some solar light, solar fans and am looking for shelves (I'll know if I want or need any once the greenhouse is up and the beds inside it. I'm wanting to get more beds as I don't plan to have all my garden beds inside the greenhouse. I am wanting to grow veggies for our family which is about 19 people. If I figured right for 10 people i need 1,000 sq. ft. of garden.
I'm so excited for this growing season, I'm looking for a really good year...I hope.


John Ehrling Sounds exciting. I cannot wait to see how your garden and greenhouse progress.

Just signed up here, I started a small garden last year. It did well considering I started my seeds late in the season. This year I will be starting my seeds either a bit early or on time. I've a greenhouse I bought that should be here on the 26th, I already have a small greenhouse which is where my seeds will be until ready to transplant into larger pot/area.

I am working on my greenhouse setup as I would love to be able to grow all year, but we get high winds where I live so this greenhouse may have to be taken down when that season hits so I do plan to grow enough to not only have fresh veggies but enough to can for the off growing season. The new greenhouse is a 20' x 10' x 7' hoop type, hence the reason it may have to be taken down at the end of our growing seasons and the winds pick up in the fall/winter months.

Growfully Jenna Would love to see photos of your greenhouse progress! I've been wanting to do something similar for years and just can't ever seem to get it done.

Lori Me too, but this year I decided I was done waiting, my husband got himeself a workshed so I decided I could get myself a greenhouse. I'll try to remember to post pictures.
