I have an area where I pruned the dickens out of some raspberrys I left some in the chicken free range area.. I have a bunch of june ripening strawberrys varieties right now.. I want somemore ever barring ones.. and I have some alpines and  couple exotic strawberrys to use for groundcover where I'm removing the ivy.. I cant get the currants I want locally  just the white and red variety.. I wanna get some black currant still have to get the asian pear tree, yellow plum tree and couple cherry tree's for the slope..had hoped to catch em on half off sale end of the year and over winter them in my greenhouse but  didnt manifest 
checked nope

Nice... I've got a few cherry trees, a sour cherry and a Cupid tiny little cherries but still good. I'm build up my apple trees mainly they do well here.. Well some kinds
Bummer about the goji berries... Always online.

ohh thats nice I had looked at some greenhouses with similar designs....... I think that would make an awesome studoe craft room type building too Quote:
These coops are legondary cold climate coops. and the design has been around a hundred years at least. The way they are designed is for FRESH air. The back side where the door is is what @Alaskan would deem a still air spot there is the roosts... The rest of the coop circulates air in natural convection. The picture is from a link that is right here on Backyard Chickens.

If you want plans look up Woods Fresh Air Coop. If I were going to build a coop I would use this design.

I read this thread way back when and I believe several links to sources and storys about it are offered up there.

@hennibleBlack tomatoes would be awesome in some cemani black meat chicken stew Lol!
I usually grow early girls but I figured I'd try something different and
bought some cold set tomatoes a few years ago and have been searching the web for where I got them but every seed place that has them I know I didn't order from.? Anyways your supposed to be able to start them from seed directly into the ground while it is still frosting. I never tried it though.
Have you ever saw the Totally Tomatoes catalog? I wanted to start growing some sustainable seeds and bought open pollinated Alaskan Fancy, 55days and Bloody Butcher 55days also.
The first is a determinate small plum and the second is a small dark red indeterminate. I'm going to grow them separate and if they do good save the seeds.

I think I'd wanna try a white tomatoe with the cemani stew just for color contrast visual appeal maybe some yellow peppers...that sure would be fun to play with whatever color you choose though
