Although most hoophouses can withstand some snow load, if you've got too much snow, you need to get it off. You can attack it from the inside first, but if that doesn't work, you'll have to go outside.
From the inside: Using a broom, sweep down the sides of the greenhouse poly to dislodge the snow. You've got to start at the bottom and work your way up as the snow cascades down. A wide push broom will remove more snow per sweep, but it gets heavy holding it above your head for any length of time. You may prefer a lightweight kitchen broom. This sweeping usually works just fine when the snow is light and dry. But if it's heavy and wet and won't slide down, you need to go outside with a partner.
Outside: Get a length of rope long enough to extend across the top of the hoophouse. Tie knots in it every couple of feet, and throw the end across the hoophouse to your partner. Then just pull the rope back and forth between you; the knots help dislodge the snow. This is when it gets really fun, as sheets of snow cascade down into your boots!
As soon as we start driving our routes in the spring our customers ask us when we’ll have roselilies. They’re that popular and have become a signature crop for us. They’re basically a type of oriental lily, but with multiple layers of petals, and without stamens and pistils (i.e. no pollen!). 
Prairie Garden Farm has been growing cut flowers for florists and studio designers since 2010. As we’re on an exposed hillside in west-central Minnesota, we’re dependent on protected culture to grow quality flowers. This article describes our approach – planning, financial, and operational details - that helps us make the most of our structures.
High tunnels have played a crucial role in season extension for market growers, with popularity increasing over the last decade to meet demand for locally grown produce year round (or close to it). Once built, the high tunnel becomes some of the most valuable real estate on the farm and many growers are able to produce exceptional yields in the first few years. After several seasons, yields begin to decline and many growers struggle to maintain productivity.
