Aquaponics is a hybrid system from hydroponics (growing of plants in water) and aquaculture (raising of fish in high density). By combining the two systems it creates a symbiotic relationship between the fish and the plants.

Through a nitrifying bacteria process, nitrate is created using fish waste. As the nitrate rich water runs through the system the plant roots act as bio filters and soak up the nitrate and excess ammonia, cleaning the water for the fish. Our system is a closed loop recirculating system, water is only added in due to evaporation and transpiration.

• Soilless farming solution

• Less risk for contamination

• Ability to grow 24/7 all year round

• 70% less water usage

• Healthy/organic choices are offered in designated rural food deserts (places that do not have readily available farms to source their greens.)

Fish poop is an essential part of what makes an aquaponics system so sustainable. The fish poop is filtered out of their tank and shared with the plants to absorb the nutrients.
