    We did the exact same thing that you did only 38 years ago. Bought a run down greenhouse/nursery in Minnesota. My husband quickly learned to be the fix-it man for everything! We had super old oil furnaces. Nursery started in 1906 & they heated it with coal back then.

Thanks God that Brad is such a handy man and I can just imagine the stress you went through. You both most definitely deserve some extra chocolate cookies this Sunday 🍫!

    It sounds like Brad is just like my husband Ron was. He could fix anything, if not the traditional way then he would rig something up and it worked every time. Sadly, he passed away four and a half years ago. He not only fixed our stuff but also my girls things at their houses. My daughter made him a cup that he took to the VA hospital every time he went that said "Mr. Fix it". I am so glad that Brad got it fixed, and he had extra parts for the next time, if it needs to be fixed. Ron was just like that also. Just a couple of smart guys.

    So scary and frustrating. I only grow in my house - where I live - and worry about the furnace going out. It did a couple of years ago and I ran electric heaters for 2 days. It was -20 C. (ON , Canada) I am so glad that you managed to keep the Greenhouse warm enough. So stressful!! Recently there was a local grower that ran out of propane during the night. Her tulips were fine, but all the Dahlia cuttings died. She said that was 2 months of work. She lost on wages that she paid her staff who did the cuttings, and then for the lost sales too.
