Expanding Capacity at the Greenhouse

Expanding Capacity at the Greenhouse

I've been busy at the greenhouse in Halfmoon Bay, Ca. As plants grow and we add a greater variety of product there's a need for more room and organization.

Much of the material we used for these tables is "found" which explains their ad hoc appearance.

This facility was originally set up for hydroponics several years ago. The white Styrofoam sheets are "lettuce rafts" which make nice, light weight table tops.

Each of these tables will end up about 40+ feet in length.

Each table is wide enough to hold three trays as can be seen above with the "mud flats" growing a variety of sedum.

Even these larger pots of Aloe kedongensis can rest safely on the new tables.

After a month of part time work, table 20 goes is in place and ready for use.

We will keep expanding over the rest of year to accommodate our plans - after all growing lots of plants takes lots of room!
