Abstract
A modular greenhouse enclosure is formed by mounting on a conventional shelf storage unit having spaced shelves supported on upright posts a rigid frame on which an impervious transparent cover is supported. The cover overlies and extends past the side edges of the shelves to define the enclosure. A vertical gap opening in the cover gives access to the shelves within the enclosure, and this opening can selectively be closed. The frame can be modular, formed from a plurality of posts and connectors, generally with three posts secured to each connector held angled relative to one another. Some of these frame posts can be connected to the shelf unit to hold the frame overlying the shelf unit. Several storage units can be positioned proximate one another for increasing shelf capacity, with a single frame and cover overlying all units.
