The most popular of the Free Greenhouse Instruction Plans that have been listed on the site, have been the PVC Hoop House plans.

Dug Out or Pitt Greenhouses:

These greenhouses are great if you happen to have south facing slope or hill on your property. They are exactly as their name suggests and are actually carved into the earth and then covered using your glazing of choice.

Bonus: if there is an in-ground pool available that is not is use, they can be easily converted into a greenhouse. They are also usually located in a sunny area of the yard, already have drainage, and can even be sprayed down to keep clean or dampen down on warm, hot days.

Hoop House Greenhouse:

These are the number one used greenhouse in North America. They offer a simple design and are easy to construct.

Mini Greenhouse and Cold Frames:

Whether there is a small area available to grow plants or shelter to start growing seeds early for planting into a garden, Mini Greenhouses and Cold Frames are perfect.

Straw Bale Greenhouse:

People not only greenhouses, using Straw Bale Hay, but houses as well. This is considered an actual construction material and a rather in-expensive one at that.

Wood Greenhouses:

Wood is a very familiar construction material for people to work with, so is also popular with many people. It is best to use cedar or a pressure treated lumber to avoid wood rought.

Lean-to Greenhouses:

Ideally built on South facing walls for the most sun light exposure, they use the thermal mass of the wall to stay warm in the evening when the night time temperatures are cooler.

Recycled and Salvaged Materials:

The ultimate greenhouse building material, for the pocket book, as well as the Environment, how can you go wrong with that?

 As with any of the free Greenhouse Construction plans a certain amount of construction know how is needed. But whether this "know how" comes from yourself, a few friends, or a community a greenhouse is a great project to take on for anyone.
