I love these two Yale videos . I'm so entertained. I don't have a green house but I wish municipalities have a designated greenhouse for every town so that each household can plant something for themselves during winter.

What are winter greens? What plants can i plant during the winter in a greenhouse ?

But are you using humanure compost yet? I have 2 cubic yard bins composting humanure and intend on using it for my vegetable gardens in about 2 years, although I may wait 3 years to ensure the majority of the pathogens (if there are any) are taken care of.
