Why is Aquaponics Important?

  • Aquaponics can grow a tremendous amount of food with a fraction of the water that is normally used in soil based agriculture

  • Food can be grown directly in our communities, providing access to nutritious food, creating jobs and eliminating the huge carbon footprint associated with food transportation miles

When this happens, students are immersed in a real-life farm environment where they are introduced to many new learning opportunities and skills outside of fish and plants.
