Environmental package

Claim 1

An environmental package adapted for compact transportation of organic matter and for subsequent formation of an enlarged enclosed chamber with adequate room for plant growth, comprising: a support base including a plurality of compartments adapted to retain liquid, each said compartment having upwardly extending sidewalls and a bottom surface; a pair of end panels attached to said support base and in a first position folded flat over said support base in a plane substantially parallel with the bottom surface of each said compartment, and in a second position folded upright in a plane substantially perpendicular to the bottom surface of each said compartment; each said end panel having end sections foldable in a plane perpendicular to both the remaining portion of said end panels and the bottom surface of each said compartment, each said end section having a depending locking means for engaging said support base; each said end panel having, in said second position, a vertical dimension substantially greater than the vertical dimension of said organic matter, the vertical dimension of each said end panel being substantially equal to at least the greatest height of anticipated plant growth within a subsequently formed enlarged enclosed chamber, thereby forming an intermediate structure; and transparent bag means, said intermediate structure being inserted in said bag means which is supported by said pair of end panels, completing the enlarged enclosed chamber with adequate room for plant growth.
