Cheap and Easy Built Winter Hothouse on the Farm
A simple lean-to hot house with south exposure provides a winter supply of vegetables and mushrooms if desired. The design uses an eight foot by long layout with a six foot high front, three feet of clad framing, tar paper insulation, and a two foot wall. A old stove near the entrance, benching along the length, and heat from a single flue keep the house warm. Building it yourself cuts costs and second hand sash or new glass can be used to reduce expense.
