Why Domes?

Garden & Bed Design

Raised garden beds are not included in the greenhouse kits, as there are as many ways to design your garden as there are gardeners in the world. Find pre-assembled beds in our shop, call for design plans and cut lists, or be inspired by fellow Dome Owners and create something uniquely yours.

Build the Perfect Greenhouse for Your Climate

Growing Dome designs born in the heart of the Rocky Mountains, where high altitude, dry air, cold nights, and pervasive sunshine shaped the greenhouse we manufacture today. To maximize performance, no matter where you live, we continue to innovate and offer customization options for your climate.

Why Do Greenhouses Need Ventilation?

Greenhouses need ventilation to provide plants with fresh air for respiration and photosynthesis, regulate temperature and humidity levels, and prevent fungal infections. Proper airflow strengthens plants, reduces disease risk, and ensures healthier, more resilient growth year-round.
