supplement light with LED

Hi. We are under contract to buy 5 acres, so I can build a greenhouse! Yay! (and horses! Yay!) I would like to grow year round, as I might be too lazy for transplanting.

Can I supplement light in Dec with LEDs strung close to the plants? I was hoping rope style LEDS would help, but I keep seeing spotlight style. It's not like I'm growing in a basement, just compensating for short days. I hear things like spinach will stay alive, but not grow in Dec, but I wonder if that's true in Virginia.

Is there a cost effective way to supplement light?
