Greenhouse
Summer of 2025, with the much-appreciated help of a dozen individuals, poor li moond constructed a 26’ growing dome with an underground heating system to allow for year-round growing/harvesting of vegetables, herbs, and sacred plants (Aztec tobacco, white sage): as well as fruit trees such as lemon, lime and orange. For temperature regulation, a 1200-gallon pond was installed. The pond will sustain freshwater aquatic flora and fauna.
Preparing the pond to fill with water
Exterior of the greenhouse. It is 26’ in diameter (510 ft²).

The centre (foreground) of the dome has no floor and will house fruit trees.
