Bustani Urban Garden

Haller’s Bustani Urban Garden (Swahili for back garden) brings Haller’s innovative farming techniques from a rural to an urban environment. We show people cheap, simple ways to produce food, purify water and use sustainable energy in a very confined space. The bustani model can be applied worldwide to help people improve their health and livelihoods.

The aquaponics system has been adapted and we are currently building a 2nd prototype model for the Bustani garden. This information will be available shortly.
