A2: Hoop Houses

On her blog Relish, Myra Klarma documents – in words and photos – her experience helping build a hoop house for Brother Nature Produce in Detroit’s Corktown neighborhood on Aug. 1. The project, which allows the urban farm to extend its growing season, is supported by Friday Mornings @ SELMA, an Ann Arbor group raising money to support local farm initiatives. The group plans to hold another hoop house-raising on Aug. 15 at the farm of Tomm Becker and Trilby MacDonald, off of Joy Road north of Ann Arbor. [Source]
