Greenhouse Manual

For some time now, I have dreamed of a passive solar greenhouse. The dream began in seventh grade for a research project. Now I find myself wandering around the yard, trying to figure out the best placement for maximum sun exposure.

However, since I won't be doing this any time soon (too many trees, not enough cash), I've read "The Northlands Winter Greenhouse Manual" by Carol Ford and Chuck Waibel. The book has practical information for growing food in the depth of a Minnesota winter. It is written in a conversational voice with stories about the greenhouse. Also, readers will find an empowering message: "Yes, you can!"
