Very fun to watch your greenhouse build, very exciting to come together. We also live in Southwest Montana (Ramsay, just outside of Butte). My wife would love one. I'll be keeping an eye on your process to see how successful it is. Lord knows our plastic hoop greenhouse just isn't cutting it.
Thank you for your comment. I know Ramsey well. I'm from Butte. We have most of walls built and I should be posting an update this month. Stay tuned. Kim
@beccafaust5776 Thank you for your comment. There are a number of suppliers out there but availability is the issue. Many of our kits were purchased before the supply shortages today. However, we did run into some issues with supply and canceled shipments for kits ordered in 2021, so we purchased from various suppliers. If you are in the US, there is more availability from Earth-Wall Products out of Smyrna, Georgia. This supplier provides twisted wire gabion baskets which I believe offer more flexibility with support over the tap wire welded cage kits we ordered. (Wish we had gone with twisted wire to save on all the additional tap welding we did ourselves to achieve more structural support). Another benefit to Earth-Wall Products is that they have a structural engineer on staff that can provide guidance for your design. Another tip for resources in your area is to talk to large landscapers or fencers. Gabion baskets are traditionally used in landscaping and fencing. These businesses should be able to give you some leads. If you buy from big box stores or big internet suppliers (ie. Amazon, Wayfair) , just make sure you are getting rust resistant, galvanized metal that is at least 9 or 11 gauge wire. If you wire cage is made of twisted wire, instead of tap welded, you will pay more. Cheers, J&K

My apologies if this question is redundant, but where did you purchase your gabion kits?
I absolutely LOVE your videos!
