Blogged a while back about THANET EARTH
This is a huge project in Kent which has now opened, and is providing various salad crops to the UK market and beyond.

I'd quite like to have a look around as I'm sure there's potential to make use of it as a great educational resource, but I understand that there are no visitors allowed. There are talks offered in the local area, which have apparently proved very popular...
Would be good to have a comparison with the Spanish areas where greenhouses cover the landscape, in Almeria.
Coincidentally, the folks from @NTUGeography: Nottingham Trent University's School of Animal, Rural and Environmental Science are in Spain at the moment, and have been sending updates and Twitpics from their travel.
They spent today in Almeria looking at a range of landscapes, including the greenhouses or invernadaros of the area around the Campo de Nijar, and the Campo de Dalias.
