It’s gonna fit!

There’s a new greenhouse going up at Bee Heaven Farm! Before one post can be set, the space for the structure has to be measured and staked out. In this video we meet Frankie the greenhouse guy and his helper, who are the masters of the tape measure. The space they stake out looks like a tight fit. Margie is delighted and excited — her dream is finally materializing!

Help Margie’s dream come to fruition and donate to her Indiegogo campaign. Click here to do it online. It’s fast and easy! (Plus you get cool gifts.) Today, Sunday October 12th, is The Last Day! Thanks for your donation!
