Grow Food Anywhere
PARAGRAPHIC • 10m
The science of aeroponics opens the door for people everywhere to take control of their food supply and grow their own fresh fruits, vegetables, and herbs at home.
Vertical farming with Tower Gardens has been around for years but many people still tend to think of farming as needing organic soil and acres and acres of land. If you rethink farming, you can actually grow a variety of plants without any soil and 95% less water.
Going vertical also requires 90% less space, so you only need a tenth of what you would traditionally need. That means growing your favorite fruits, vegetables, and herbs outdoors as well as indoors with efficient LED grow lamps. This tower to table mindset will shift the way you view farming, gardening, and how you buy produce.
