Cold Frame
A cold frame is an enclosed structure that allows you to grow garden crops in winter. The cold frame can be a simple three- or four-sided structure built of scrap wooden boards or concrete blocks that abuts an existing structure. The four sided cold frame can be a free-standing structure.
With a little care, you should be able to have fresh vegetables 12 months of the year. The cold frame will also give you a head start in sprouting seeds for planting in spring.
Before building your cold frame, select a location that receives sunlight for most of the day. The cold frame should be placed in a location facing south. The next best location is to place your cold frame in an area facing west. Avoid placing the cold frame in the shade of overhanging tree limbs. Select an area with a gentle slope for better drainage.
