How to Build a Greenhouse from Used Windows or Storm Doors

Building a greenhouse can be inexpensive if you use recycled doors or windows. And a small greenhouse is a great way to grow a few vegetables right through the coldest months of the year. Experience the excitement of seeing a seed sprout, get a special satisfaction from eating your own harvest, and enjoy the flavors that have been lost in the quest for commercial produce that stays hard as wood in shipping (and also resembles wood in flavor).

Start collecting them now.

DIY Pie SafeMother's Workshop: An Old-Fashioned Pie Safe

DIY SKILLS
Bricklaying toolsBricklaying for the Do-It-Yourselfer

DIY KNOWLEDGE
Table SawTable Saw Safety

In my shop, the table saw is the most essential tool. I need it almost as much as I need my thumbs, but I never forget which is more important. And I never forget which one could potentially remove the other.

Better safe than sorry.
DIY LANDSCAPING
Footprints on wood pathNatural Paths and Walkways

A country path gently lures, beckons, entices, invites you on a leisurely journey where the trip may be more important than the destination. It takes you around big trees and rock outcroppings rather than over or through them.

Does your homestead need one?
