The next day Laureleen invited us to visit her familys place 12km further.
Imagine a huge oasis, a #permaculture garden with greenhouses built into the ground An innovative concept to benefit from the earth's temperature regulation capability. The built in #aquaponics create a tropical climate to grow a diverse assortment of eatable plants. Melon, cucumber, pumkin, even passionfruit climbing towards the ceiling, delicious strawberrys, salad etc covering the soil.

@sharinggoodmoments That sounds really interesting - never heard of that.
@sharinggoodmoments that looks amazing. Is it mostly to keep warm in winter, or cool in summer? how well does it work?

They told us growing like this works very well (it felt confortable inside and everything was sooo tasty). Thats why the 3rd tunnel was built (with the knowledge from the previous ones).
In winter its still 9°C and in summer it does not get too hot. the small biotopes resp. the aquaponics seem to be important for the climate. also the air circulation tubes in the corners. You should ask Loïc himself, he's just experimenting to figure stuff out.
