Thomas Massie tweeted the following:

"This is why a #walipini can be useful in climates where we have four seasons. But the days are short and you still have to pull the snow off the roof if those plants are going to receive light. The plants in the last picture are actually some salad greens that went to seed."

Here are other recent tweets from Thomas Massie:

"If you build a walipini, include an automated vent that opens when it gets too hot inside. I learned the hard way when all of my plants got cooked on a very sunny day. I found a random surplus window and added a heat activated actuating cylinder you can buy on the internet."

"A panoramic, with plants growing. Squash isnt the best thing to grow in here. Tomatoes do OK, but they prefer more sun and theres not much of it in the winter. Peas, carrots, cabbage, and salad greens do great!"
