Protected growing spaces for plants, seedlings, food production, and future farm resilience

The Greenhouse Tunnels are planned as one of the key production and nursery areas of Three Sisters Farm. Also known as polytunnels, these structures offer a practical, flexible, and cost-effective alternative to traditional glass greenhouses.

Located in one of the sunniest areas of the farm, the greenhouse tunnels will help us grow plants through colder months, start seedlings, raise young trees and perennials, and support the wider development of the food forest, gardens, and farm landscape.

This project is about more than growing plants. It is about creating a protected space where future fertility, biodiversity, food production, education, and plant propagation can begin.

Planned Features

  • Two greenhouse tunnels / polytunnels
  • Protected growing space for winter cultivation
  • Nursery area for young plants
  • Seedling and propagation area
  • Space for woody plants, perennials, shrubs, and ornamental plants
  • Support for the food forest and farm planting plan
  • Cost-effective structure compared to traditional glass greenhouses
  • Flexible and expandable design
  • Educational value for visitors, volunteers, and future workshops

The Vision

We are not starting from zero. In 2023, we already installed three greenhouses on nearby land, where we grow annual crops and continue to gain practical experience with protected cultivation in our local conditions. These existing greenhouses are already helping us understand what works best in our climate, how to manage seasonal production, and how to plan future growing spaces more efficiently.

The new Greenhouse Tunnels at Three Sisters Farm will build on this existing experience and expand it into a more organized nursery and production system connected directly to the farm.

The first tunnel is planned as a protected horticultural growing space.

It will help us grow and protect plants during colder periods, giving seedlings and young plants a better chance to survive and develop before being moved outdoors.

The second tunnel is planned mainly as a nursery.

Here we will raise plants for the food forest, gardens, Mediterranean therapy garden, educational garden, and wider farm landscape. It can also support grafting, plant propagation, and future plant sales.

Together, these two tunnels will give Three Sisters Farm a practical foundation for long-term planting and production.

SUPPORT PROCESS

Support the Greenhouse Tunnels

By supporting the Greenhouse Tunnels, you help us grow the future of Three Sisters Farm from seed.

Your support helps us build protected growing spaces, raise plants for the food forest, develop a small nursery, support regenerative planting, and create an educational space where visitors can learn how plants begin their life.

Support can come through donations, materials, tools, nursery equipment, irrigation systems, seeds, pots, construction help, sponsorship, or partnership.

Every contribution helps us grow more plants, restore more land, and build a stronger farm system.

By choosing products from our farm webshop, you directly support the development of the Greenhouse Tunnels and the wider Three Sisters Farm project. Each purchase helps us prepare the site, install the tunnels, buy nursery materials, grow seedlings, and raise plants for the food forest, gardens, and farm landscape.

  • Your order helps us grow plants, trees, herbs, and perennials that will become part of the future farm
  • Every purchase supports protected growing space, nursery work, plant propagation, and the long-term development of Three Sisters Farm.

Support the Greenhouse Tunnels Your Way

Would you like to support the Greenhouse Tunnels in your own way? Contact us and tell us how you would like to help — through sponsorship, materials, tools, seeds, pots, irrigation equipment, nursery tables, construction help, volunteer work, or partnership.

Together, we can create a productive and educational greenhouse area that helps Three Sisters Farm grow from the roots up.

Helping grow the future of Three Sisters Farm

The Greenhouse Tunnels are one of the practical foundations of the farm’s future production. They will help us grow seedlings, trees, herbs, perennials, and plants for the food forest, gardens, and wider landscape.

We welcome support from individuals, companies, gardeners, nurseries, builders, irrigation specialists, environmental organizations, and everyone who understands that every strong farm begins with healthy young plants.

Support for this zone will help us with land preparation, tunnel installation, irrigation, nursery equipment, pots, seeds, soil, compost, and the creation of a protected growing space for the next stages of the project.

This support is not only about building greenhouses. It is about helping us create the place where the future farm begins.
