USDA's EQIP program can help cover a large share of an eligible structure. Working alongside your local NRCS office we'll get you the specs you need to make the most of your grant.
CT Greenhouse is not affiliated with USDA. Program rules, cost-share rates, and deadlines are set by NRCS and vary by state, so always confirm with your local office.
We're publishing these one state at a time so each one is accurate. Call an owner and we'll tell you what we know about your state's program and get your spec sheets started.

While the basics of the frames are the same, the real difference lies in their use. High tunnels are built over your field for protected in-ground growing and season extension. Greenhouses are used for nursery crops and seed starting. Greenhouses often include more upgrades, including heat, double layer plastic, and fans, but there is no reason those things cannot be added to a high tunnel as well! Not sure which fits? See our high tunnels or call an owner.
Yes. Major frame connections come pre-drilled at the factory, and most kits go up with a small crew. We include build guidance, and an owner is on the phone whenever you need one.
All the hardware needed for installation and a double-inflated layer of 6-mil greenhouse plastic. Baseboard lumber and doors on the base Grower are not included. Your quote lists exactly what ships on the truck.
While the structures may be similar, the NRCS EQIP grant is specifically for high tunnels, meaning that you must be planning to grow in the ground in the tunnel for the length of your contract.
Pricing depends on your size, options, and site, so we quote each build individually. Call (860) 341-8707 or request a quote below and an owner will get back to you with real numbers, backed by our price-match guarantee.
