	ydroponics\;\n * learn more about ecological pest control\;\n * help Andre
	i with work in the greenhouse and learn by doing\;\n * or simply drop by t
	o explore this special place.\n\n\nABOUT THE GREENHOUSE\n\nThe greenhouse 
	at the Metabolic Lab is a place where different water-saving\nmethods of f
	ood cultivation are being tested\, both in soil and directly in\nwater. Th
	e aim is to save water\, grow healthy organic food and keep production\nco
	sts low. The systems are therefore built as much as possible using simple\
	,\neasily sourced materials\, so that others can build them themselves as 
	well.\n\nOne of the systems in the greenhouse is aquaponics\, in which fis
	h and plants\nwork together. The nitrogen-rich waste produced by the fish 
	is converted into\nnutrients for the plants. The plants\, in turn\, clean 
	the water\, which then flows\nback to the fish. This creates a natural cyc
	le.\n\nThe greenhouse also experiments with a range of other cultivation m
	ethods\, all\nfocused on organic and sustainable food production in urban 
	areas.\n\nGrower Andrei Becca has eight years of experience growing plants
	\, including two\nyears working in one of the most advanced greenhouses in
	 the Netherlands. He is\ncurrently also pursuing a master’s degree at Wage
	ningen University\, focusing on\nwater conservation and management.\n\nhtt
