GYO Is Micro

GYO Greens is Your North Florida Aquaponics Farm

Proudly Sustainable

Tucked away on Canal Blvd between Roscoe and Palm Valley Road, our two greenhouses welcome chefs, visitors, and foodies from all over north Florida.

Our farm combines traditional aquaculture (raising aquatic animals – in our case, KOI fish – in tanks) with hydroponics (cultivating plants in water) in a symbiotic environment. All produce is grown naturally using standard organic practices. We also use beneficial insects and companion planting for pest management.

Local Since 2014

In January 2014, GYO Greens started as a nonprofit organization with the hopes of raising funds through donations and events to expand its educational outreach programs. The farm, which uses no pesticides or chemicals, sits on one acre, and includes a 3,000 square foot greenhouse. In addition to education, GYO Greens Farm also delivers produce to local restaurants, using a rafting system to ensure that chefs get the freshest ingredients. Produce arrives “live” and is grown at each chef’s request. 

“We are a very niche farm. Most of what we have is all pre-sold,” said GYO Greens farm manager Benjamin Gaugush. “Chefs are looking for high quality produce and things they are not likely to find anywhere else. We try to accommodate what they want.”
