UMaine Extension educators Frank Wertheim and Marjorie Peronto will cover how to build a small greenhouse or low tunnel structure for growing winter greens and boosting spring and summer season crops. Additional topics will include production schedules, which hardy greens to use for winter growing, and when and how to get them started.
