The Greenhouse of the Future is a how-to video that outlines the design and step-by-step building of a radically sustainable passive solar greenhouse built from up-cycled materials (tires, wood, glass bottles) and operates using fully renewable natural energies. By building this greenhouse with your family or your community, you will contribute to a healthier and more sustainable world, reconnect with nature, save money and produce your own local organic food all year-round.
