USDA's EQIP program helps farmers cover a large share of high tunnel costs. We're not the policy experts (your local NRCS office is) but we know these structures, and we'll give you the engineering your application needs.
CT Greenhouse is not affiliated with USDA. Program rules, cost-share rates, and deadlines are set by NRCS and vary by state. 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.
Toby and Aaron are the owners! Thank you for being available for all my questions, for helping me navigate the biggest purchase for the farm. I got a larger unit with more options for less money.
Yes. Our structures meet USDA-NRCS high tunnel specifications, and we supply the documentation your EQIP application needs. We'll also point you to your state's program, though the rules themselves are set by NRCS, not us.
Eligibility and cost-share rates vary by state and practice standard. Choose your state in the NRCS section above for local requirements, and we'll help you match a structure to them.
Every Grower, Grower Plus, and Grower Pro is fully customizable: width, length, sidewall height, end walls, doors, and ventilation. We start from your farm and your crop plan.
Most kits ship ready to raise. A typical crew can have a Grower up in a couple of days; larger Pro structures take longer. We'll walk you through it and stay on the phone.
We're farmer-owned out of Portland, CT and Afton, MN, and we serve growers across the Northeast and Midwest. Tell us where you are and we'll sort out freight.
Tell us a little about your operation and an owner will get back to you, with real numbers, not a sales script.
