Plans for different styles of hobby greenhouses may be provided by your local Extension office. Also try a search in your public library.

A hobby greenhouse can be constructed easily and inexpensively by anyone able to use simple hand-tools. Most of the construction materials can be purchased at building supply stores. Low-cost materials may also be available at construction sites or salvage yards. If any aspect of the construction is beyond your skills, you may be able to hire a local carpenter or handyman to help.

Alabama Cooperative Extension Service has a publication available for hobby greenhouse plans

Colorado State University Extension has blueprints online at http://urc.colostate.edu/Blueprints/Greenhouse.htm. Or you can order hard copies for a small charge.
