Aquaponics: Food for the Future

Yes, it's true! You can grow aquaponic organic vegetables and fish in a space as small as four by four feet! Have fresh salads every day and fresh tilapia every week, using this new green sustainable technology, while saving 90% of the water compared to a conventional garden.

A Grow Foods Aquaponic System is a farm or garden that recycles its own water! The fish provide the nutrients in the water, and the vegetables purify the water for the fish. It works just like the ponds and streams in nature. Now you can grow your own vegetables and fish and save water at the same time!

We build and service small and large systems, from desktop size to acre size. We can build them in your home, garden, greenhouse, industrial space, school, or church. Our small designs are ideal for homes, learning centers, or for hobbyists who want to experience first hand the technology that is going to be feeding the world! Larger installations are available for schools, churches, or other organizations that want to feed a few families. If you are interested in building a system or systems large enough to operate commercially, we can help you, too.

Your Grow Foods aquaponic system can be located outside, perhaps in a greenhouse, hoop house, on your porch, or even in a spare room. Sometimes churches, businesses, villages and schools buy a larger size so many can share the creative fun and the harvest. This is truly a lesson in the life cycles of nature!

To find out more about how you or your organization can benefit from our services, give us a call today at 858-207-4831. If you are in or near San Diego County, we can schedule a no-cost no-obligation meeting for you to learn more about Grow Foods and our line of products and services. We will be happy to visit your proposed location, discuss installation and costs, and to help you choose from among the available options.

We regularly give briefings and make presentations to businesses, schools, churches, civic organizations, and government agencies that are interested in acquiring or sponsoring a Grow Foods Aquaponic System. It's great for schools, where students get hands-on lessons in biology, botany, conservation, physics, math, and ecology. As a side benefit, they also learn social skills like cooperation, planning, cleanliness, and an awareness of the importance of efficient organic food production. Curricula are available for schools and home schooling. We are always looking for individuals, organizations, and companies who can sponsor gardens and farms for schools that can't otherwise afford them.

Contact us today so we can answer your questions and discuss how to get started!
