What We Do
At Farmwall we believe our cities can stop eating our planet and start feeding it.
We enable everyone to grow their own food, no matter who or where they are. We do this by supplying ag-tech (agricultural technology) products and educational resources to home growers, hospitality venues, corporate offices and schools.
Traditional Broccoli
Broccoli is a tasty and nutritious vegetable which is popular in dishes from stir-fries to soups. However, like many other industrially-produced food products, it requires significant inputs of water and fertiliser, as well as the fossil fuels used in cooling and shipping. In addition, broccoli is shipped in single-use styrofoam boxes, over a million of which end up in landfill in Australia each year.
Broccoli Microgreens
Broccoli microgreens can also be used in a wide variety of dishes, and contain the same nutrients as adult broccoli, at 40x the concentration! They can also be grown with significantly less water and fertiliser, particularly in a Farmwall aquaponic system where sustainable fertiliser is produced by fish. They are harvested and eaten immediately, which not only makes them fresh as can be, but free from the food miles and single-use packaging associated with long-distance shipping. What's not to love?
School Incursions
We love sharing our passion for sustainability, biodiversity and urban farming with students from all year levels through hands-on incursions! The environment is of great concern to many young people today, and we aim to equip them with practical skills to work towards a green future. Our team of Urban Farmers have a diverse range of specialities, from therapeutic horticulture to social entrepreneurship; and with content on subjects from seed bombs to circular economy, we're sure to have something to engage and empower your students!
Our vision for cities of the future
Farmwall for Corporate Offices
Installing a Farmwall in your office is a great way to promote wellbeing, increase collaboration between teams and departments and integrate a sustainable mindset within your organisation! Particularly as employees return to the office after WFH, this aquaponic growing system will help create a relaxing and pleasant environment with fresh and healthy food to support them.
Drawing on the theory of biophilia, we provide a way for workers to interact with plants and fish in their workplace, as communing with other living things has proven health benefits.
Farmwall also provides a complete impact dashboard, according to the SDG and ESG Indicators.
