What We Do
What Is Hydroponics?
Hydroponics is a revolutionary method of cultivating plants that eliminates the need for traditional soil, relying instead on nutrient-rich water solutions to deliver essential minerals directly to plant roots. In this soil-less system, plants are housed in inert growing mediums like perlite or coconut coir, while nutrient solutions are precisely controlled to provide optimal conditions for growth.
This innovative approach offers numerous benefits:
- Water Efficiency
- Faster Growth
- Space Optimization
- Reduced Environmental Impact
- Less Labor
- Precise Nutrient Control
Hydroponics represents a forward-thinking and sustainable solution to modern agriculture, offering a glimpse into a more efficient and environmentally conscious future.

What Are Microgreens?
Microgreens are tiny, nutrient-packed seedlings harvested 7 to 14 days after germination, offering intense flavors and concentrated nutritional benefits. Popular in salads and various dishes, these mini greens, such as kale and radish, provide a delicious and healthful addition to culinary creations.
Why Use Root On Living Lettuce?
Keeping lettuce with its root enhances freshness, flavor, and shelf life. This farm-to-table approach maintains the lettuce's connection to its source, while the roots serve as a natural water reservoir, preserving vibrancy and boosting nutritional value. Including lettuce with the root in salads and dishes brings a unique freshness, elevating the dining experience with a direct link to the plant's vitality.
Local. Sustainable. Clean
