The Tools You Need To Succeed
Thrive in Today's World
We care about Your Students well-being
It takes more than job training to thrive in today’s world, which is why we offer our students a blueprint for a healthy life and renewed vitality through our Health & Wellness curriculum, which includes discussions on diet, exercise, mindfulness, yoga, and a 21-day mindfulness challenge.
How it Works
growing produce in a Supported, hands-on environment
Our team of agriculture experts will help you set up everything you need to run a successful Sustainable Agriculture program. We come to your location to set up the aeroponic systems and provide the necessary onboarding, including training on how to use and maintain the systems.
Your program group leader will be properly trained not only with the physical growing systems, but also with the online web application to ensure a smooth running program.
The success of this program depends on you just as much as it depends on us, but don’t worry, we’ll be with you every step of the way.
Proper Preparation
Grow with different perspectives
We use industry standard equipment that prepare students for future job opportunities. Our course training uses both aeroponic vertical gardens as well as NFT (Nutrient Film Technique) growing beds, giving students the knowledge and confidence necessary to succeed.
Learn the Difference
aeroponic's 101
An advanced form of hydroponics, aeroponics is the process of growing plants in an air or mist environment rather than soil. Aeroponic systems use water, liquid nutrients and a soilless growing medium to quickly and efficiently grow more colorful, tastier, better smelling and incredibly nutritious produce.
The Benefits of aeroponics
Because there’s no dirt, there’s also no digging or weeding. Plus, you don’t have to worry about ground pests or contaminated soil and the vertical garden design uses 90% less space. Some other benefits include:
- Increased yields by an average of 30%
- Grows plants up to 3x faster
- Uses 90% less water
- Increased mobility and efficiency
- Organic, healthy, and pesticide-free
- Increased food security
- Grow fresh food year round in any climate
