Sustainable Farming That Feeds, Trains, and Transforms

We build micro farm systems that combine aquaponics and organic gardening to grow food anywhere in the world. By training students and communities to use these systems, we help people create lasting food security and self-reliance.

A Global Need

Across much of the world, communities face food insecurity, poor soil conditions, limited space, and unpredictable climates. In many regions, traditional farming is either unavailable or no longer sustainable. This leads not only to hunger but also to a loss of independence and opportunity.

A Practical Solution

Aquaponics and Earth exists to meet that need with something simple and lasting. Using a combination of fish-powered aquaponics and earth-based gardening, we equip people to grow their own food organically. Our systems are low-cost, easy to learn, and built to thrive in challenging environments—bringing practical change to places that need it most.

What We Do:

We don't just build garden beds. We build systems that feed families, train leaders, and empower communities to grow their own food.

Build Micro Farm Systems

We design and install micro farm systems that use aquaponics and organic gardening to grow food in even the most challenging environments. Fish waste is recycled into nutrient-rich water that feeds vegetable beds, creating a closed-loop system that produces both protein and produce. These farms are compact, low cost, and designed to thrive in limited space with minimal inputs.

Train Students and Interns

We equip people with practical, hands-on skills that go far beyond theory. Students, volunteers, and international interns learn how to raise fish, grow crops, manage waste, and preserve food using methods that can be taught and repeated anywhere. Many leave ready to bring these systems into their own communities, classrooms, or countries.

Empower Communities

We work with local leaders, orphanages, schools, and backyard gardeners to help them launch and sustain micro farms of their own. Our approach is collaborative and community driven. Whether someone is starting with a backyard or serving an entire village, we provide tools and training that make food independence possible.

Equip for Global Impact

Our systems are designed for replication. They can be adapted to different climates, cultures, and available resources, making them ideal for mission projects, community programs, and global outreach. We do not just build farms. We help others take the model and run with it, multiplying impact far beyond our own reach.

Real Stories Real Change

When an orphanage in Nuevo Laredo, Mexico, needed a better way to feed its children, Aquaponics and Earth helped them build a fully functional micro farm. Today, they’re growing their own vegetables, raising fish, and passing on skills that can shape a generation — all with a simple system designed for long-term success. This is not theory. It’s not a handout. It’s a working model that’s producing real food and real opportunity — and it’s already being replicated in communities around the world.

What Does It Look Like to Make a Difference?

We set out to create something meaningful. Not just a project or program, but a movement that would serve people and the planet for generations to come. From schools and gardens to communities and families, lives are being changed in ways we couldn’t have scripted. Take a closer look at how these efforts are making a real difference in everyday lives.
