Greenhouse Lettuces

Twinned vegetable tunnels, simple polythene cover.

Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, Bouches-de-Rhône, France, July.

"I know this farm well. They grow lettuces in open-air production. The tunnels are cold, that is unheated. The advantage of this system is that there is no loss of land between the tunnels."
