Check out freecycle and craigslist for free old windows for the glass you need. Use pallets for all the wood you need for shelving - use the slats for the shelves and the support posts can come from the center of the pallets.

Habitat Restore is way over priced accept for the free items they sometimes have. they are trying to raise money for Habbitat so they price at retail levels, at least here they do.

Check with the supervisors at new construction sites or where someone is rehabbing an old building. You might be surprised what they will give you. It never hurts to ask..what's the worst that can happen?

You may be surprised what people give away. Check out yard sale and sale groups on Facebook.

Can't you put an add up in your local bakery or so to offer cleaning (house or garden), cutting the hedge or do groceries shopping for someone to trade for what you need for you hothouse?

I usually see lots of free sliding glass doors and windows on craigslist. :)

As others have already mentioned, check Craigslist free section frequently--like several times a day as things are snapped up quickly in my area. Also check the "materials" section of CL as people often have leftover construction materials they just want out of the way. The Habitat Restores in my area are reasonable, too. The local independent hardware store offers free pallets quite often--check with yours. Also, let your friends know what you are on the lookout for--surprising what people have stuck away and just don't think about until you let them know you're looking! Check out window/glass dealers as they sometimes have castoffs they can't sell. I'd give you some old windows were we closer. Best wishes!
