PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT

Students and community members collaborate

together to learn about agriculture and
business.

About 120,000 sqf of dedicated growing space will

produce an average of 600,000 tons of fresh
produce. That is enough to offset 1/10 the annual
production of fresh produce for all of West Harlem.

The produce grown at the hydroponic farm is sold in

an on-site market, and in local grocery stores
around the area. A portion of the revenue goes to
help maintain the classrooms and the farm.

AQUAPONICS
Aquaponics is a food production system that combines conventional aquaculture (raising aquatic
animals such as snails, fish, crayfish or prawns in tanks) with hydroponics (cultivating plants in water) in
a symbiotic environment. In normal aquaculture, excretions from the animals being raised can accumulate in the water, increasing toxicity. In an aquaponic system, water from an aquaculture system is fed
to a hydroponic system where the by-products are broken down by nitrogen-fixing bacteria into nitrates
and nitrites, which are utilized by the plants as nutrients. The water is then recirculated back to the
aquaculture system.
