Build an aquaponics farm

Workshop on February 22, 10:00 to 18:00

Aquaponics is a sustainable food production system that combines the cultivation of vegetables and fish. The best way to produce food in the city, because it hardly takes up any space. The fish poo feeds the plants, and the plants clean the water for the fish. Not a drop is wasted. If you'd like to learn how to build an aquaponics system from scratch, join us for this hands-on workshop. You can get your tickets online.
