"One of the worst hail storms in the history of Illinois. It's still standing"
Brian
A Chicagoland buyer who shopped five other places and came back because nothing else was wood. Then a hail storm broke car windows across town and wrecked his roof. The greenhouse didn't lose a pane.
Wasn't shopping for a greenhouse, saw the Nordwood and had to have it. Then the worst hail in Illinois history broke the car windows and left the glass house without any damage.
I Couldn't Have Built It Better or Designed It Better
Dan
A builder who did everything in this backyard himself except the greenhouse, because buying it cost less than building it. His neighbor was quoted $100,000 for one the same size.

$30,000 to $40,000 in Blackberries
Michael
Michael Seringer runs Clean Harvest Farms, a startup farm with hydroponic greens and a 2,000-tree pomegranate orchard going in out back. The greenhouse arrived in one crate, took two Texas storm seasons without a scratch, and now fills with 120 blackberry plants, away from the birds, the hogs and the deer. “I would highly recommend the product. Absolutely.”
A working Texas farm: 120 blackberry plants, two big storms, no damage. “It was a greenhouse in a box.”
When It Comes to Eating, We Eat From Out Here
Luther Harris
Luther Harris was raised on a farm and spent 27 years in the Army; now he grows tomatoes, cucumbers, asparagus, cabbage and pumpkins, gives the harvest away, and cans the rest the way his grandparents did. The Texas wind took his cloth greenhouses, so his wife bought him one it couldn't, and he set every pole in concrete. “Grow your own food. It’s easy, it’s healthy, and you get a lifetime of enjoyment.”
27 years in the Army, then a garden that feeds the house. He gives the extra away and cans the rest.
My Old Greenhouse Was a Nightmare
Joe & Veronica
Joe fought a cheap slide-in-panel kit for two years, the wind popping panels out faster than he could put them back. He watched the ads for months and read what other owners said before buying; a year later the new one has taken over two feet of New York snow that slid off on its own. “If you’re on the fence about it, definitely pull the trigger,” says Veronica.
Two years fighting a cheap kit, then two feet of snow slid off this one by itself. “Definitely pull the trigger.”
A Memory You Can Pass On
Derek
Derek Hartman learned to garden from his mom in the yard next door to where he lives now. He found the greenhouse on Facebook, built it with his sons, and grows everything from seeds his kids collect off last year's plants. The family record is 74 quarts of pickles in one year, made on an assembly line of the whole house.

I'm Putting Something Up to Last
Jeff
After years of losing his garden to woodchucks, retired utility worker Jeff Kinville decided he’d had enough. For his first-ever greenhouse, he skipped the cheap plastic kits his neighbors watch blow down in the wind. He set his in concrete, buried geothermal pipes beneath it, and built it to survive a region that’s seen 44 inches of snow in a single day. “I’m very pleased and very happy with what I’ve bought.”

If I Had to Buy These Plants, It’d Be Thousands of Dollars
Lisa
Lisa runs a wedding venue, and every spring she fills her greenhouse with the flowers and plants for her events — already emptying 40 trays this season instead of buying them in. On her third greenhouse (after a Harbor Freight kit she calls “a piece of junk”), she raised this one taller to fit her shelving and warms it on cold spring nights with two $30 ceramic heaters. “If I had to buy these plants, it would be thousands of dollars.”

The people who own them
We like to meet customers in person
Almost every owner says a version of the same thing: it's better in person than it looked online. That's the part we can't show you properly. What we can tell you is what happens next. The neighbours come over. Friends ask to be photographed in it. Someone in the family who has never grown anything ends up with their own bench in the corner.
By the end of the first season it's usually doing two jobs at once, full of what they're growing and full of people, and it's the first thing anyone gets shown when they visit.
Across the country
We keep turning up in person
Different state, different garden, same reason for going. We want to see one standing a season after it went up, and hear what the owner makes of it.
