Moving Day - Mobile High Tunnel

Twice each year we move the mobile high tunnel up or down the track to a new location.  We have usually gotten a crew to help so there is one person on each corner at least.  Last spring Ken and I moved it alone, but that was down hill!

Ken spends about a day getting ready and finishing up.  He has found that adequate preparation makes the process run more smoothly.  He takes down old plants and weeds along the tracks so the greenhouse rolls easily.

He unhitches some of the supports if the weather permits.  Then when everyone arrives they loosen the rest of the anchors and push the supports so the wheels roll down a track

Once the mobile high tunnel is in place, then some anchoring is necessary immediately.  

Thank you to this year's crew
