Title: Polytunnel 'caging'
Post by: elvis2003 on September 07, 2015, 17:09:00

Hi everyone
Ages since I posted here, hope you are all keeping well and have had a good season! Wonder if you couls help..Im currently putting together a funding application for school to include a metal container and polytunnel. I have been looking and looking online for some security for the poly to protect from vandals. The two tunnels we had at college had lovley black caging around them. I am failing miserably! Any ideas where I could get this from?
TIA

Super nice of you to reply, but I was after something with a 'roof'..imagine a massive dog crate with a polytunnel inside it. Your idea would of course be better than nowt  :happy7:

How about these then!

The fruit type will have nylon netting but you could look around for similar with a 'weldmesh' covering.
