In this video podcast, we are joined by Scott Rizzo, President and Co-owner of River City Aquaponics. Aquaponics is a technology that blends aquaculture (growing fish) and hydroponics (growing plants in water) to grow chemical-free produce and fish without soil. It’s a way to produce food in a clean and environmentally friendly way.

Fun facts:

• Aquaponics uses ⅙ of the water required by traditional farming.

• It is less land intensive than traditional farming.

• Aquaponics requires no chemicals.

• It is sustainable.

Tune in to take an in-depth look at the value and benefits of aquaponics. You’ll also get a chance to see how River City Aquaponics operates their system and understand how aquaponics will benefit the residents of Thrive Co-living Communities.
