High Tunnel Concept

The most inexpensive "greenhouse" approach to growing vegetables. These can be bought in "backyard" size, or for commercial agricultural production. They are tall enough for a tractor to drive through at 30' wide and 12' tall.

Note the following advantages:

1. Instead of one crop harvest per year, you can have 2 or 3.
2. Produce vegitables even when it is snowing outside.
3. Produce fresh food, when the seasonal price for food is highest.
4. Ideal to control your environment, by control of insects, chemicals and temperature.
5. Ideal for drip irrigation

PROFIT POTENTIAL IN FOOD PRODUCTION:

High Tunnel Greenhouse

Studies show that berries and vegitables grown in wind tunnels can make $30,000 to $50,000 per year, per acre.

Consider if you allocate 5 acres or 10 acres to food production.

10 acres x $30,000 = $300,000 per year!

Combine this concept with the idea that land prices require more production on less land, and freight and shipping costs are too high, so in this way food production can be optimized near population centers.

Then consider that we can add a wind turbine, to provide the electricity for lighting, fans, or even an irrigation well to provide water, and you have a self sustaining, renewable energy, food production plant!

GROUPS THAT SHOULD BE INTERESTED:

• Farmers and food producers
• Retail grocers
• Churches (create food production projects and give the food to the community)
• Corporations (create a 'corporate food plat' for employees and for the community)
• Individuals
• City planners, who see the need for "near proximity" food production for population centers
• Those who have vision and can see the need for fresh vegitables, with the flexibility to utilize organic, and drip irrigation
• Every person with an extra 30' x 35' tract of land, or every farmer who wants to increase production profit.

These tunnels are built with sturdy metal posts, and have a 4 year warranty. The standard "kit" covering is a tough milar, but you can also use a strong "shade fiber film" (used at car dealerships to protect cars from hail, sun and wind), or a clear plastic corrigated panel with a hard surface that has a 20 year life.

Typical costs for the units in kit form will run about $2.00 per square foot, this is the least expensive greenhouse type building available. For larger farm, agricultural applications, we can provide even lower costs.

Our kits have everything you need, posts, tools, hardware, even "roll up" equipment, and the covering. Installation is easy, with clear instructions.
