Do you live in 20 square meters above the ring road and yet you have the soul of an urban farmer? Do not panic. Thanks to the germinator, in glass, terracotta or plastic, you will be able to reconcile your nascent passion for sustainable agriculture and your life far from any fertile land (in the area, the rare cultivable acres are most often used as cans dumps). A real star in the kitchen for a decade, the hotbed, never far from the kefir pot, illustrates a fashionable fantasy: that of taking control of one’s own food with the relocation of production.
Here, we are in the ultra-short circuit, since from the producer to the plate, there is literally only one step, the one that separates your jar filled with small intertwined filaments from your poke bowl (come on, two steps if you have a large apartment).
