BUILDING THE POLYTUNNEL (or more acurately the Polyhouse)

In April 2020 i set about building a Polytunnel on our plot, from scratch and with mostly salvaged materials. The one thing we knew we would have to spend on was the poly cover sheeting and so thats where the budget went!

The poly isn’t really a tunnel, its a 3m x 2m box with u-shaped raised beds inside. And its worked out fantastically well!

If you’de like to watch a video about how we made it:

8 months later, i did a review of how its worked out and anything we’d change if we did it again. You can read about that and watch the video here –
