underground

No, we’re not talking trains – something
else is happening in the tunnels below our
capital and it’s far greener than the
District Line! Growing Underground is an
exciting project growing produce 33 metres
below the busy streets of Clapham.
Situated in a former WWII bomb shelter,
it’s the world’s first underground farm,
specialising in fresh micro-greens and
salad leaves. The team’s hydroponic
technology means that the crops can be
grown all year round, offering great
flavour and far fewer food miles than
imported veggies, as well as using 7 0 % less
water than traditional farming methods.

tour at growing-underground.com
