Very clever use of a small space to do such intensive gardening and produce enough food. Well organised and lovely too. Thankyou for sharing.

Thank you! Cheers!
Your garden looks amazing! I can see you put a lot of hard work into it and it really shows in your plants. I wanted to get out in my garden today and plant some cucumbers but it was our first 90+ degree day of the year and I just could not handle the heat. Thank you for sharing your knowledge of gardening with us. I just love to garden but I still have a lot I want to learn. I make garden videos too. I hope we can learn more from each other as we grow our gardens and our channels.
Jacob...I have been watching your videos, and am wondering if possible to visit physically visit one of the food forest farms near Nairobi. I am trying to set one up at Emali, and boy I don't know where to start. Is that possible?

Nice. One question, what about ventilation say out the top? In various seasons or even day to day, being able to crank something open or shut or having it somehow automated. Thanks.

Ventilation is not really an issue because there's constant airflow always due to the shade net as opposed to glass or plastic walls.

What is the top made out of? What happens during the rainy season?

True! In Kenya many gardeners experience problems with monkeys so the grow house really helps to keep those out. Very adaptable to many locations!
Where I live in South Africa it's impossible to grow fruit and veges outside of a grow-house due to large troops of vervet monkeys who decimate everything.

Hi, juat wondered how can bees, butterflies and birds get in to pollinate the plants?
@daisyritchie3161

Hi rabbi thanks for your message, we plant majority self pollinating plants inside and hand pollinate the others such as cucumber and courgettes. Other insects do come and go when the door is open. Let us know if further questions! Thanks Daisy

Do the insects get caught in the nets? I am hoping to find or use something that causes least harm to all creatures as possible. Thanks
