- 12. The Desire to Garden is Godly Now the LORD God had planted a garden in the east, in Eden; and there he put the man he had formed. The LORD God made all kinds of trees grow out of the ground—trees that were pleasing to the eye and good for food. Genesis 2:8-9 We were created to live in a garden!

- 27. Aeroponics have been extensively researched by NASA. Why NASA & Aeroponics? Water is Heavy! To Grow Cleaner No Soil = Less Disease No Growing Media to Throw Away
- 28. Faster and Healthier Higher Nutrient Density = Healthier Astronauts
- 29. NASA’s Amazing Research into Aeroponics “…..growers choosing to employ the aeroponics method can reduce water usage by 98 percent, fertilizer usage by 60 percent, and pesticide usage by 100 percent, all while maximizing their crop yields by 45 to 75 percent. By conserving water and eliminating harmful pesticides and fertilizers used in soil, growers are doing their part to protect the Earth. -NASA’s Spinoff Magazine, 2006, “Progressive Plant Growing Has Business Growing”
- 30. “Moreover, the NASA SBIR results demonstrated that this aeroponic technology delivers an 80-percent increase in dry weight biomass per square meter, when compared to hydroponic and soil-based growing techniques. (When a dry weight measurement is taken, all water is removed from roots, leaves, and stems— thereby, removing water from the biomass.) These results essentially proved that aeroponically grown plants uptake more minerals and vitamins compared to other growing techniques.” -NASA’s Spinoff Magazine, 2006, “Progressive Plant Growing Has Business Growing”
- 31. University of Mississippi National Center for Natural Products Research In every crop, antioxident content was the same or higher in the Tower Garden than in soil! “Over the years, research on antioxidants has gained enormous popularity and emerged as potential therapeutic agents to prevent free radical generated damage in the human body. Antioxidants as a natural product, compared to the synthetic antioxidants present in the market, have attracted considerable attention by consumers and by researchers since there is concern of synthetic antioxidants consumption due to their instability and possible activity as carcinogens” downloads.hindawi.com/journals/ecam/aip/253875.pd

- 37. “By building an “edible wall” to grow fresh vegetables in our science classroom I gave the kids a reason to come to school. Everyone likes to be outside getting their hands dirty, but I needed kids to be in school. I realised that if I could control a lot of the variables – such as watering, pests and weeding – by growing plants indoors, gardening would be even more fun.Remarkably the plants grew. The kids really believe that they are responsible for them and attendance has increased from 43% to 93%.” -- Stephen Ritz, Global Teacher Finalist, NYC Bronx Teacher
