Have you ever wondered what farming might look like in the future? Do you have a keen interest in gardening and sustainability? Then this event is for you!

Come and chat to the UQ aeroponics club and learn about how they are building a system to grow plants in a way that saves time, energy, and resources. You can also learn about how you could receive funding from UQ Sustainability for your own sustainable project!

You can find the Aeroponics setup in the Steele building next to the geology museum. The Exec team of the UQ Aeroponics club will be there to answer your every question from 12.30-1.30. They’ll provide the knowledge - all you need to bring are your questions!
