There are a number of ways that commercial aeroponic growing systems can benefit the world including, water conservation, sustainable growing in underdeveloped countries, not to mention the benefits of reduced pollution form fertilizers and pesticides.

What you may not know is that there are many benefits to having your own household indoor garden too. Beyond the environment and satisfaction from having a home indoor garden, there are also some very rewarding environmental and health benefits.

Healthier Food - Aeroponics requires little work. Pesticides and herbicides are not needed to grow your food. You’re able to pick and eat your food as it reaches maturity, maximizing the nutrients that you consume.

Better Tasting Food - In addition to healthier food, when you pick your fruits and veggies at their peak of ripeness they have the best flavor. Grocery store fruits and veggies are often picked before they are ripe in order to arrive at your supermarket, possibly thousands of miles away, at maturity. Additionally, supermarket fruits and veggies can sit on shelves past their maturity before you are able to purchase them.

Save Money - Growing fruits, vegetables, and herbs in your aeroponic garden saves you money compared to the high cost of supermarket products. You may also save gas money from not having to visit your grocery store as frequently. Plants grown in aeroponic gardens can grow up to 5 times faster over traditional growing methods.

Reduced Environmental Impact - Consider the amount of fuel that it takes to harvest commercially grown fruits and veggies. Tons! Now add on to that the fuel it takes to bring those fruits and veggies to your table. The average produce in stores traveled more than 600 miles from the field. This increases non-renewable resource use and pollution.

Water Supply - Indoor gardening uses up to 95% less water than plants grown in soil. Additionally, because you’re not contributing to the water pollution from commercial farmers that use fertilizers, pesticides and herbicides.

Aeroponic gardening is fun and easy. It can become a natural part of your household with a few easy steps, and just think of all of the good that you’re doing for your family and your planet! For additional information reguarding aeroponic gardening visit www.mysecretpantry.com
