Yes, I'm going to heat it with a space heater. Sounds great that you have an opportunity to rent space.

My Orinoco made it despite it getting down in the teens with snow. Your a little further north than I so I imagine it was colder there.

I'll be growing some dwarfs in the green house and maybe keep a few pups in there as well.
