I started on the new replacement greenhouse on Saturday, the new greenhouse has a foot print of 10' x 20' and is around 240 sq ft more than the old A-frame greenhouse I been using.
The design will be similar to the "Solar Shed" idea but built more to my climate and needs.
Here are a few pictures on the foundation. I will post more as I build.

That's going to be a nice huge greenhouse soon! :thumbsup
Have Fun building it, I really want to build a greenhouse too maybe in a few weeks.

Can't wait to see what it looks like with all the plants inside!

Make sure you put chicken wire around the wooden base. I had woodchucks go under my greenhouse base and eat my very early broccoli at the peek of perfection.
