Hi all. My wife and I constructed this tunnel for some indoor veggies. Our first crops grew well and we harvested plenty. But soil nutrition was also to be taken into consideration. Carting manure back and forth was an option, but also labor intensive. So....came up with an idea! Had my sheep use the tunnel as a shelter in the winter and when spring breaks.....I have a whole lot of manure in my tunnel. Crops are doing well again.

That is amazing! How long did it take you to construct that?
Thank you. It took about 2 months. The concrete foundation kept us quite busy. Only had 1 wheelbarrow. All the brackets on the steelwork was done in a bench vice.

I assume you mixed & poured it all yourself? I am extremely impressed! I will have to show my engineer, maybe I can convince him to do something similar :D
