Our homeowner's policy excludes greenhouse structures. Nothing was growing in it at the time. It's been quite a number of years since we have had this much snow come down in one night (10inches). So I totally forgot about getting out there, turning on the heat, brushing the snow off, etc. Instead I was enjoying the snow...snowshoeing at midnight. I woke up to the devastation the next morning. One bright side is that the bottom posts (we had it 4 feet up on L bars like Elliot coleman's movable structure) were not bent So we just have to replace the hoops, plastic and repair and make changes to the ends which we can do before our March 1st traditional start of growing the Ghouse. I'm thinking that I will go with the gothic style so that this won't happen again. Even though this will require extra costs in changing the end walls.
