That's the most netherlandisce American Indian that I've ever seen. Great show!

[@everydaywitkaycee]

Hahahaha I thought I was the only one who noticed the weird chemistry between the White and Indian lady ....

[@ummyahya3965]

How does she keep the water from freezing?

[@UAFExtension]

-The rainwater catchment system is only used in the summer months. You’d need to take down the gutters in the winter.

[@ummyahya3965]

@@UAFExtension thank you

I found this very informative and only wish the camera had shown more and she had gone into much more detail. It would have been nice to get more specifics on the design and build. As this women's job is to inform people, I was disappointed in the lack of details and information.

300 gl per zone? - 300 gl every time she waters? - seems like a bunch of water?

[@RobCooper]

sure does. I thought the same thing

[@brucea550]

How big is a ‘zone’? Never showed how long this greenhouse is. So working backwards, 300 gallons is 40 cubic feet, which is 1” of ‘rain’, a typical good amount, on 480 sf. That’s an area 20x24, not really that big, maybe half the high tunnel.

[@everydaywitkaycee]

Yeah sounds like a lot of water till you hear 30,000 Gallons for 1- hectare.
