Five profitable reasons to consider a movable high tunnel

There are many advantages to choosing a movable high tunnel. The health of your plants, the length of your grow season, and the quality of your soil will all benefit. And to that last point, disease buildup that sometimes occurs with stationary high tunnels will be a thing of the past.
 
Especially for four-season growers, having the ability to move your high tunnel is nearly equal to having an automated control system. No matter where you live, there are advantages this system. In dry climates, humidity can be adjusted to the preference of your plants. In coastal regions, you can shield your crops from strong winds and aggressive fruit fly swarms that can destroy entire crops in days.
 
It may sound like you need a greenhouse for every season, but that’s certainly not the case. Having mobility means you can open up your high tunnel and let it breathe in the summer, and hunker down with confidence in the winter for those in colder climates.
