An easy way to provide cover for your over wintering vegetables and salad. Grow more over winter by providing cover from the worst of the weather.
Even if things are hardy they’ll do better without the driving rain and snow covering them. A poly tunnel is an easy way of providing cover so that the veggies can get on with growing.
