Hydroponics is an innovative system of food production taking place in greenhouses that maintains the aim of sustainability, producing the highest quality root vegetables. A subset of hydroculture, hydroponics relates to the growing of plants in an aquatic based environment, using mineral nutrient solutions to feed the plants in water, instead of soil.
Producing exceptional flavour, these vegetables can be prepared with many and varied dishes, pleasing to all palates. In addition to being rich in vitamins, minerals and fiber, vegetables also have bioactive compounds that protect against degenerative diseases such as diabetes, various types of cancers and cardiovascular diseases.
