A greenhouse is a great way to grow various types of plants throughout the year like herbs and fruit. If you do not have the space for a standalone structure, then the best alternative is to look at attached home greenhouses.

These structures are also called lean-to greenhouses as they are attached to the side of a house or other structure. They are not difficult to build, when you have the proper materials and plans for the project. This is a perfect weekend project you can do if you want to be more self-sufficient on your property.

Attached home greenhouses can be built from many types of materials. The most common building material is wood, but PVC piping is also an option. All you need to do is determine which plans you want to use for your project.
