Welcome to Ledgewood Farm Greenhouse Frames. Ledgewood Farm, located in New Hampshire, manufactures pipe frame greenhouses  and high tunnels. The frames are used by all areas of agriculture for plant protection, livestock housing, and storage. Our goal is to help make your business more profitable by providing frames to enhance plant growth, improve the health of your animals, and create economical storage. Season extension for vegetable farms is an important  economic boon for retail and wholesale production. Heated greenhouses and unheated high tunnels fill a void left on many farms to extend markets for many weeks. Season extension works for many crops including vegetables, small fruit, herbs, and tree fruit. The greenhouses are suitable as plant protection from seed to sale. The frames are an economical alternative to wood or steel buildings to protect equipment from the weather and to decrease animal stress during cold winter months. 
 
 LEDGEWOOD FARM GREENHOUSE FRAMES
                                          
            Ledgewood Farm is located on NH Route 171 in Moultonborough,NH on the northeastern side of Lake Winnipesaukee in the foothills of the Ossipee Mountains.  We have been raising vegetables and bedding plants since 1957.  We currently have ten acres of vegetables and small fruit, a roadside stand, and more than thirty thousand square feet of greenhouses.  The greenhouse space consists of nine unheated tunnels and five heated greenhouses.  The unheated tunnels are used to grow early season vegetables and cut flowers for sale at the farm stand.  The heated houses are used to grow our own seedlings for field production, greenhouse tomatoes, and red peppers.
          Ledgewood Farm Greenhouse Frames began in 1987.  The purchase of some simple equipment and applying some Yankee ingenuity was the beginning of a very successful supplement to the farm.  Our philosophy has not changed since the beginning.  We provide a quality product at a fair price, advise and guide the customer at no charge, and  constantly on the lookout for new and better ways to utilize the frames and technology that develops.  We have a strong belief that greenhouse production is going to continue as a mainstay for successful farming well into the future and we will be leading the way with insight and hard work.

INTRODUCTION TO OUR 17 and 21  FOOT WIDE GREENHOUSES

           

The bows for these greenhouses are made from 1.660” O.D. pipe.  The 17 and 21 have a ridge and one purlin on each side. The height is sufficient to use a small tractor for tillage or for use as a garage or storage space. The greenhouses are suitable for use as high tunnels or heated greenhouse space. The sidewall height of between 5-1/2 and 6 feet allows you to work close to the edge and for good ventilation using roll-up sides.  
         
 
THE 21-1.9", 26 and 30 FOOT WIDE GREENHOUSES
            The 21,26 and 30 foot houses are the same design as the 17 and 21 foot houses except the bow diameter is larger(1’900”OD), they have a total of five purlins and a 1.660”O.D. insert connects the post to the bow.  Crossties with trusses are suggested for these houses because of the rafter span and the greater snow and wind loads. 
 
WHAT’S INCLUDED IN THE KITS?
            The tube for all of the houses is Allied Gatorshield galvanized steel.  The kit for all widths include; ground posts, bows, purlins (1-5 depending on the width),diagonal corner bracing, bolts and nuts, spacing template, post driving bolt, and instructions.  The frame is pre-drilled for all bolts.  Crossties are available for all houses to use as crop supports or for added strength.  The roof pitch of all houses is 6/12 or about 30 degrees in a gothic style.
 SPECIAL REQUESTS
          The frames are available in four foot increments of length.  Special orders for width and height are available because we manufacture all of our frames at the farm.
 
ROLL-UP SIDES
          The roll-up side ventilation system is a very simple manual system.  The kit consists of a T-handle or gear crank, 1.315”OD tubing for both sides, bolts and nuts, and poly clips to attach the poly to the pipe.
