Aquaponics is the hot topic this month in Urban Agriculture. These three social entrepreneurs in NYC have designed a simple and attractive at-home aquaponics system that could bring in a whole new set of urban growers. With aquaponics and hydroponics options embedded, the Aqualibrium offers an ideal introduction to sustainable agriculture at home. Check out their campaign on Kickstarter and be part of the change: 13 days left!
FREEDOM TO GROW A HEALTHIER LIFESTYLE
Inspired by the designs of futurist Jacque Fresco, the Aqualibrium Garden is modular, sturdy and very stylish. You will have the option of leaving the lower chamber fish tank open (as shown in the above drawing)… or closed by using the four removable clear doors included with each garden. This is a great option for homes with pets and small children.
Although our prototype (as featured in our Kickstarter video) is white, the Aqualibrium production model will be manufactured using clear, UV protected, scratch resistant plastic and will be shipped fully assembled… ready to fill with water, fish, grow medium and plants… perfect for either aquaponics or hydroponics growing.
One Aqualibrium Garden can supply a steady stream of fresh greens for one’s own needs or enough fresh basil or other herbs to generously share with friends and neighbors. Multiple gardens have the potential to meet all the fresh produce needs of any family… meaning that the Aqualibrium Garden can pay for itself with food cost savings alone.
The Aqualibrium Garden is a great gift, a great educational tool… and a great way to help move the world to a better, fresher, sustainable source of food.
