Kind Greenhouses 



KEEP SUMMER WITH YOU THE WHOLE YEAR ROUND 



On account of their sturdy special construction which permits of great 

 strength without the need of heavy shadow casting supports, these houses are 

 so warm and sunny that they are filled with a riot of bloom and fruit when 

 Jack Frost has stripped the garden of Its beauty. 



The ventilating and heating systems are the result of years of experience 

 In building for professional growers. Things just have to grow in a King.
