Hope Farms - Inner City Food Systems

Donation protected


I am Doing Research and Starting a Sustainable Food Production Systems and Their Support Technologies and Environmental Remediation Working/Producing Research and Developement Indoors Farm/Company. Through the Use of Natural Systems, Utilizing Interdependant/Symbiotic Biological Relationships Wherever  Possible.
One of the first Products will be an Economical Small System for Use in the Inncer Cities by Low Income Individuals and Families, Capable of Providing a Majority of Their Organic Fruit and Vegetables and If a little extra effort is Expended Have Produce or Specialised Herbs/Vegetables/Fruit etc. for Sale.
Providing  Extra Income Streams.
 Another System I am Developing Will Provide Fish as well as Vegetables/Fruit etc.
Other Systems  will Eventually Have other things, mollusks/crayfish/shrimp/Algae/ etc.
Systems I am Working on Will Utilize Techniques and Ideas from Hydroponics, Aeroponics, Aquaponics, Vermiculture, Algaeculture, Mycology and many other things.

My current project is providing a revenue stream to fund  my research. Growing Organic Herbs/Spices and Micro Herbs/Spices and Producing Premium Shitaki, Oyster and Other Premium Mushrroms.
I have always lived a low impact non materialist lifestyle and have still managed in the last year to accumulate a lot of equipment and supplies and tools. I am coming to need more exspensive tools and supplies and equipment. I am  like a starving artist except I starve to buy an Electrical Condictivity Meter or Seeds or a myriad of things instead of new brushes or paint. lol
I Also Have Run Out of Space. I Have around 500 Gallons in Tanks I can't use until I get a New Lab/Workshop,Growing Room, Tank Room.
So once I get my projects setup, They Being  modest one's to start , They should provide somewhere around $2000 to $5000 a month I hope.
Once I can move, it will be easy to expand my systems, just add More Lights and Mushroom Supplies. I will just buy as many as I can as I go along. That way I can easily expand my production slowly, and funding my research should no longer be a worry.
I estimate with one of my production systems for the herb growing project to get about 100 sq Feet of growing room in a space 2 feet by 4 feet and 7-8 feet tall. I hope to have a smaller version for under $100 with 8 square feet of growing space.
The rent/move on the Wishlist, I am not really expecting to get that, I plan to save it as fast as I can. But it's a wishlist right? :)

This is What I am Working to Save. Any Donation Whatever is Most Heartily Appreciated.
