Aquaponic Farm Visit & Mini Hydroponic Workshop

As part of the Erasmus+ Growing Together project, the innovative startup Peas Unlimited will be hosting 15 lucky youths at their roof top aquaponic farm followed by a Mini Hydroponic Workshop on Saturday 4th May at 10am until 14:00. This is an opportunity not to be missed for those people who always wanted to learn the ins and outs of aquaponics as well as hydroponics which our host Alex will be able to discuss in detail during the Q&A session.

Timeline on the day:

9:00 – Transport from Floriana (FoE Malta office) to roof top farm in Marsascala

10:00 – Aquaponic Farm Tour

11:30 – Q&A Session

12:15 – Transport from Marsascala to FoE Malta office

13:00 – Mini Hydroponic Workshop

14:00 – End of workshop

For the Mini Hydroponic Workshop, all participants will need to bring a glass jar with them (minimum jar height of 15cm and mouth opening of 8cm minimum) with a sturdy lid in order to upcycle the jar into a beautiful hydroponic system growing some fresh herbs – perfect for a home office!
