Here are some of the key features of my geothermal greenhouse:

It uses a buried pipe to collect heat from the ground.
It has a raised beds made of gabions inside the greenhouse to act as a thermal mass.
It is made of wood and glass, and it is insulated with styrofoam and weed barrier.
It has a workbench, a water storage tank, and a drip irrigation system.
It can stay 55 degrees warmer than the outside temperature on a cold winter day.
