A walipini is an underground greenhouse that was used widely in warm South American countries. However, a lot of farmers worldwide have adopted this concept to be able to grow their food year round.
This greenhouse concept has some advantages over traditional greenhouses. It protects your plants from pests, as it’s nearly impossible for pests to enter it. Secondly, it doesn’t cost much to build compared to traditional greenhouses. Also, it requires minimal maintenance since it is under ground.
The Earth Sheltered Solar Greenhouse Book will be of great help explaining more about underground greenhouses, their designs, and harnessing solar energy passively. You can buy this book here.
