Hveragerdi - Iceland

Hveragerdi

Hveragerdi

This town is known for geothermally heated green houses that grow a significant portion fo the vegetable Icelanders eat as its too expensive to import them. Only one greenhouse is open to the public and its only a gift shop with a "greenhouse with house plants for sale. It has nothing that shows how the actual cultivation of any crops. Total waste of time in my opinion.
