Sheryl your about the same zone as me. I bought a new greenhouse this late summer this makes the 6th one. I was fortunate enough to find a nice size 200.00 wood buring stove for it. I load it up about 3 to 5 times a day. It's a bit of work but I already have all wood for our larger outdoor furnace.

The idea for the above is that ground water is a constant temprature for us it's about 58f and if you can some how take the heat out of the ground water and pump it back you should be able to heat something at least from freezing.

I looked up this idea on the net. It seems similar system are out their and are being used. Here is a link to one of the better sources I found
