Hoop houses are not just for winter gardening. They can and should be used year-round. They can be outfitted with insect netting in spring and fall to prevent insect pests, shade cloth in the summer to protect against sun stress, drought and reduce irrigation needs, and used with row covers or greenhouse plastic in winter to protect against frost and cold temperatures. My goal is to install a hoop house on all my raised beds, because they make gardening 10X easier!
