Low Tunnel Covers

Low tunnels allow you to plant up to two weeks earlier in the spring. Available as punched and slitted coverings, low tunnels are ideal for the early production of many vegetable crops. Tunnels are constructed by installing 6-foot wide sheets over wire hoops that are spaced about 4-5 feet apart. The cover is pulled taut over the hoops, and the edges of the cover are secured with soil.
