Greenhouse layered build up
200 floating aquaponic greenhouses are prefabricated at the local steel works and towed to site. Placed between existing boating paths allows for maximum sunlight while the tidal changes allow for slow rotaion of each unit. Allowing for a 30 day growing rotation permits a harvest 6 -7 units, which provides a weekly share box for vegtables for 60 -70 families.
