Attention Greenhouse Fans

We have made the difficult decision to discontinue being a Solexx greenhouse dealer. Please contact Adapt8, the manufacturer of Solexx, to find a distributor near you.

I still think Solexx is the best stuff ever for greenhouses, cold frames, outdoor living spaces, and more! I will continue writing about our greenhouse growing adventures.

Thank you so much for your past support of Barbolian Fields through your interest and purchase of Solexx greenhouse kits and materials! It is truly appreciated.
