AquaSprouts® designs and manufactures gardening appliances to bring the revolutionary principles of aquaponic and hydroponic farming into the home, office, and classroom. In the current market it is difficult for average households to grow their own food. With the rise of food insecurity and the organic movement, much of society is showing an interest in localizing food production. However, many consumers do not have the space or time for a garden, despite the desire to supplement food they buy with the food they grow. This increased focus on sustainability is also leading to a reexamination of our current agriculture systems. Alternative forms of agriculture like aquaponics and hydroponics are more sustainable than traditional farming but do not yet boast mainstream success. When it comes to adopting new technology, educational institutions are vital for encouraging this adoption and inspiring the next generation of innovators. We started AquaSprouts® to solve these problems by producing turnkey aquaponic and hydroponic systems built for homes and classrooms. Households and consumers are able to use our cutting edge products to subsidize their food costs, exercise sustainability, and connect with nature in a refreshingly modern way. At the same time, students and teachers are able to use our products and educational materials as a hands-on learning tool to illustrate a variety of scientific and ecological concepts in a novel way that puts alternative forms of agriculture at the forefront. In many ways we have grown disconnected from the food that we eat, and AquaSprouts® reestablishes that link in a thoughtful manner.
