Small Hoop House Growing Workshop at Bob Wells Nursery July 11, 2026

Small Hoop House Growing for Serious Gardeners, Homesteaders, and Small Farms

If you have been thinking about adding a hoop house, greenhouse, high tunnel, shade house, or DIY growing structure to your garden, homestead, or small farm, Bootstrap Farmer is hosting a practical workshop at Bob Wells Nursery in Mineola, Texas.

Date: July 11
Time: 9:00 AM to 2:30 PM
Lunch included
Location: Bob Wells Nursery at Sorelle Farms

We will cover:

• Hoop house vs greenhouse vs high tunnel

• Spring, summer, fall, and winter growing

• Site selection

• Wind, drainage, sun exposure, and water access

• Ventilation and roll-up sides

• Shade cloth, greenhouse plastic, frost protection, and insect netting

• Crop timing and succession planting

• Beginner build and growing mistakes

• Bootstrap Farmer kit options

• DIY hoop house options

• Texas NRCS high tunnel cost-share questions

We will also walk through Bootstrap Farmer’s smaller-footprint greenhouse and high tunnel options, including the 10' x 12' Hobby Greenhouse Kit, the 10' Essential Round High Tunnel, larger round and gothic high tunnel options, shade house options, and DIY hoop house kits.

This workshop is for people who want useful growing infrastructure, not just another project in the yard.

Bring your questions, your site ideas, and your crop goals.

$50 Per Person Ticket (Includes Lunch and $50 Bootstrap Farmer Credit applied to your Bootstrap Farmer Account day of Workshop)
