In this video Jack first, the Cellar Trust’s horticulture manager and hot beds expert introduces how to grow organic vegetables using hotbeds similar to the ones Les Maraichers Parisienne .. Market Gardeners based in Paris .. used as early as the 17th century.
The ancient method of growing vegetables in hot beds, used by the Victorians and by the Romans, harnesses the natural process of decay to cultivate out-of-season crops. Jack First has revived and modernised this remarkable technique, and produces healthy vegetables at least two months earlier than conventionally grown crops.
