Why Choose Greenhouse in the Snow?

Your Year-Round Greenhouse, Built With You Every Step of the Way

Most greenhouse companies ship you a box and wish you luck. We don’t. We are the ones who design your greenhouse, bend the steel frames into shape, pack your kit, and answer the phone when you have questions during your build. When you order from Greenhouse in the Snow Canada, you get two experienced homesteaders in your corner — people who have been tending their own four-season greenhouse and feeding their family in the Okanagan for years and genuinely want yours to thrive, too.

 

Grow All Year Long

Our passive solar, earth-sheltered design traps and holds warmth naturally — staying above freezing all winter with a fraction of the energy a conventional heated greenhouse uses.

Grow a wide variety of fruits, vegetables, greens, herbs, plants, and flowers no matter what the thermometer says outside.

Your Greenhouse, Your Way

No two greenhouses are the same.
Every greenhouse inquiry starts with a conversation about your goals for growing and what kind of lifestyle you’re looking to achieve — homesteading, selling at the market, hobby, etc. From there, we help you design and build the right greenhouse custom for you!

Built for Canada, Built to Last

Every kit is manufactured in Armstrong, BC, using high-grade galvanized Canadian steel and twin-wall polycarbonate rated for the harshest snow and wind loads in the country.

Feel confident knowing your greenhouse has been tried, tested, and proven to last for decades.

Year-Round Greenhouse FAQs

1) What is a year-round greenhouse kit?

A year-round greenhouse kit is a complete structure designed to stay above freezing all winter relying mostly on heat from the sun and energy from the earth to maintain consistent indoor temperatures. You plant, grow, and harvest 365 days a year regardless of your Canadian climate, allowing you to harvest fresh fruits and vegetables for your family or supply a farmstand all year long.

2) How is this different from a regular greenhouse kit?

Conventional greenhouses rely heavily on electric or gas heating and lose heat rapidly. Our unique  passive solar design captures and holds warmth from the earth and the sun, staying productive at –40°C with about one-tenth the energy of a standard heated greenhouse.

Plus, the high-quality Canadian-sourced materials are proven to last. This is a one-time project, not something that will need to be repaired and rebuilt year after year.

3) Do you ship greenhouse kits across Canada?

Yes. We ship our full-size year-round greenhouse kits coast to coast. Backyard greenhouse kits are currently available for local pickup in Armstrong, BC

4) How long does it take to build?

Most customers complete their greenhouse installation in 3–6 weeks once it’s delivered. 

After your order is placed, we ship your kit within 4–8 weeks. You will receive step-by-step installation instructions plus personal phone and email support throughout your build. If you’re feeling stuck or overwhelmed, we can recommend a trusted local partner to help with installation.

5) Can I really grow citrus in a Canadian winter?

Yes— and we do, right here in Armstrong, BC. Our demonstration greenhouse has been producing lemons, oranges, pomegranates, guavas, and more year-round for years. We’ll show you exactly how during your tour and answer any growing questions you might have.
