H2Grow challenge summary:

We need food to survive. But food security is a problem around the world, and at home. Get creative as you design a sustainable living environment for aquatic life while growing food in this season’s Purple Plow Challenge!

This system must address the following needs:

  • Produce a plant based food source
  • Produce an aquatic animal based food source
  • The system cannot hold more than 20 gallons of water
  • A weekly documentation of water quality by pH
