Getting Started with a Cold Frame Curtain

Michelle Blades

Did you know you CAN use your One Small Garden all year long?

Now that the late October temps are dipping into the frost potential zone in the Midwest, it’s time to safeguard your garden from winter’s icy influence. Simply put, gardening is not just a summer sport. Protecting your garden now sets the stage for passive growth for three months of lower light in winter.

Cold Frame Curtain

Using solar energy, our Cold Frame Curtain loosely seals your garden bed, making a microclimate inside that insulates your growth. Our durable, Marine-grade vinyl curtain shields your delicate vegetables from the wind, frost and snow that would otherwise wreak havoc on them. 

Think of it as an outdoor terrarium that’s so flexible, you can easily vent it during the warmth of the day, then cover it back up tight as the sun goes down. During the middle of winter, you can just leave it closed. The sunlight, moisture in your garden and vinyl cover will do most of the heavy lifting for you! 

With a curtain sheltering your One Small Garden, you can grow food well past the first frost and have fresh greens earlier on in the year. Seeds may very well germinate under the protection right now, but they might slow down and wait till daylight grows longer in February to sprout. When you have the curtain in place in the early spring, it helps warm your raised garden faster than the ground soil surrounding it. This provides the perfect environment to sow new seeds directly into the soil, yielding a fledgling harvest as early as March! 

One Small Garden’s Cold Frame Curtain Protects Your Garden from Harmful Winter Weather.

New Growth in the Spring

We all know how great it is to see green sprouts growing after a cold, grey Midwest winter. Your tiny raised garden greenhouse will allow you to both enjoy the rest of your harvest from this year as well as give you a jump start on next year’s crop.
