We ordered seeds a few days ago and we are getting over 20 varieties of tomatoes as well as over 20 varieties of peppers.  We are planning on having close to 100 tomato plants and 160 pepper plants inside the high tunnel, with proper spacing of the plants, it should use about half of the high tunnel area, leaving the rest of the growing area for our other produce (lettuce, kale, spinach, radishes, celery, carrots, beets, cucumber, summer squash, winter squash and onions).

We have had a pretty good amount of snow over the last week, as seen in this picture.  Over the next few days we are supposed to get high winds and temperatures down in the negative double digits, I don't think we will have any trouble with the structure, or the doors as we did earlier this year.  We bought a 3' wide walk-through door, we are going to install it to the left side of big roll-up door.
