Here we are growing veggies at 8600ft above sea level in the Rocky Mountains in a greenhouse powered only by the sun. This update features the lush "jungle" of plants growing August 6, 2011.

The Harvest Center dome greenhouse has a diameter of 22 feet and height of almost 11 feet.  Growing Spaces offers domes with diameters of 15, 18, 22, 26, 33, 42 & 51 feet. Their web site is very informative.  Our web site is located at wpharvestcenter.org

This is a fantastic article, we all need to learn and grow our own foods.  What about the winter, any ideas...???
