About the Program: 

Bioponica™ is a research, design and installation company with a business plan model located at two sister garden sites in West End Atlanta, Ga:  The Outdoor Activity Center at Bush Mountains.  Bioponica creates supply systems and resources to improve the art and science of sustainable farming -- bringing greater nutrition, education and jobs to communities and individuals across the country.

Bioponica™ has a patent-pending for its unique soil-less growing systems, traditionally referred to as aquaponics. Additionally, we are developing a business model for an integrated Food Plant™ operation that simultaneously functions as an education facility and food market (i.e.,  The Horticulture Theraphy Greenhouse at Atwood Community Gardens (future development - Summer/Fall 2012).

We provide classroom instructions and demonstrations to individuals, groups and organizations (city or municipality groups, educational entities or institutions, nonprofit organizations) that are working to improve food security, implement sustainable farming designs and patents or incorporate other solutions and ideas promoting economic sustainability.
