A mild winter solution

I did a post on this structure last winter while it was all covered with plastic with green tarps for ends. It has become a bit more tidy over the year and is now awaiting a fresh covering of 6 mil poly.

View from NW

And from S end. New cold frame is right beside me as I take this. NS orientation with opening to E.

It's a bit crowded, about 250 sq ft of bench space total. But, it will keep the winter rains and occassional frost at bay.

Cheers ... GeneS

iann asked, maybe even seriously

Only 250sf?!?

Yes, shelter is 18 x 20 feet overall = 360 ft sq total.

You can accumulate a lot of stuff in 35 years

Looks good, Gene - I like the "Stadium seating" the cacti get for a good view of the sun!
