Let me follow in Jeff's foot steps here a little and see if there are any
salvage operations in southern California. Looking for 30' or up to 60'
wide greenhouse.
Let me just say thank you to all who participate on this list, chat,
disscusion or what ever we might call it. There has been some very
informative stuff here. Especially
for the "just getting started" like me.
Is anyone using there facility for education with local schools.
Thanks
Craig Prince :>)
