Hoop house for community garden? #386268

Asked February 23, 2017, 11:52 AM EST

ANy suggestions on where to buy a smaller hoop house that could be semi-easily taken down and put up every year by volunteers? Do you know anywhere local that sells hoop house kits or materials--we would love to support a local business rather than walmart or something. It is also ideal to have someone install it for us/show us how to put it up and take it down every year...any suggestions on where to find the labor? Recap: Where can I buy a semi-permanent hoop house locally in mpls? Who would install it and teach us how to install it the following year? Thank you!
