URBAN FARMING AT HOMEYour first step
Your first step
into urban farming.
A compact living food system designed for everyday spaces.
Farmwall Pocket brings together water, aquatic life, beneficial biology, plants and fresh food in one compact living system.
Instead of experiencing food only at the end of the supply chain, watch part of the growing process happen right in front of you.

LOOK A LITTLE CLOSERHow the living
How the living
system works.
- 01 / AQUATIC LIFE
The living foundation.
A 30-litre aquatic ecosystem sits at the heart of Pocket.
- 02 / WATER
Water connects everything.
Water moves between the aquatic ecosystem and the growing area.
- 03 / BIOLOGY
Nature does the work.
Beneficial biology is part of the relationship between aquatic life and plants.
- 04 / ROOTS
Roots reach down.
Growing positions sit above the water, so roots and life below stay connected.
- 05 / PLANTS
Water becomes life.
Propagate seedlings, indoor plants and suitable climbers on the Y-frame, beneath two Grow Helicopter lights.
- 06 / MICROGREENS
Grow something you can eat.
Choose 11 growing cups or one growing tray.
- 07 / HARVEST
Harvest. Start again.
Enjoy what you grew, then begin the next cycle.
REAL FARMWALL SYSTEMSGrown in
Grown in
real life.
Pocket isn’t simply something you install. It becomes something you check. Something you care for. Something you watch change. And something you can eventually harvest.
These are real Farmwall systems in real everyday spaces — not renders.
What’s growing right now
A DIFFERENT RELATIONSHIP WITH FOODFrom consumer
From consumer
to grower.
Most of us experience food only at the end of its journey.
It has already been grown. Harvested. Packed. Transported. Priced. And placed on a shelf.
Pocket lets you experience the beginning.
- 01Seed.
- 02Water.
- 03Life.
- 04Growth.
- 05Harvest.
You won’t grow everything you eat. That’s not the point.
But you can understand a little more about where food comes from — and build the confidence to grow something yourself.
The harvest
lasts days.
The skill
can last
a lifetime.
Observe. Grow. Learn. Harvest. Try again.
BRING A SMALL PIECE OF THE FOOD SYSTEM HOME.
REAL FARMWALL RESULTS
We’ve been learning from people who live with food systems.
FARMWALL RESILIENCE GROWING PILOT · 2020 · MID-PROGRAM SURVEY. Participants reported… n = 59

reported a positive impact on mood

Historical participant research from Farmwall’s 2020 Resilience Growing program. Mid-program wellbeing survey, n=59. These results describe participant experiences in that program and are not clinical claims or a guarantee of outcomes from the current Pocket.
THE IMPORTANT INSIGHTThe harvest was
The harvest was
only part of it.
One of the things Farmwall learned was that people valued watching their food grow. The daily interaction mattered. Checking the seedlings. Watching the ecosystem. Seeing something change. Then harvesting what they had grown.
REAL PEOPLE. REAL SYSTEMS.
Real Farmwall systems, photographed in the everyday spaces where people grow with them.
REAL VOICES — HISTORICAL RESILIENCE GROWING PARTICIPANT FEEDBACK
“I love the feeling of success when the seeds germinate and I end up with healthy greens to add to my meals.”
“I didn’t expect to be so excited… It’s definitely a feature of the home.”
“Amazing Kit! This just takes all the hassle out.”
THE STORY SO FAR
Built by learning from real people.
2020 / RESILIENCE GROWING
When COVID disrupted Farmwall’s work in buildings, the team explored bringing urban farming into people’s homes — learning about growing behaviour, barriers, design and the customer experience.
REAL HOMES. REAL PEOPLE. REAL FEEDBACK.
People’s daily interactions with living food systems shaped what came next.
TODAY / FARMWALL POCKET
A compact living food system shaped by years of learning about how people interact with food, nature and growing indoors. Today’s Pocket is not the same physical system used in 2020.
GROW A LITTLE MORE INDEPENDENCE
Food shouldn’t feel completely out of your hands.
Most of us depend on food systems we rarely see. Pocket doesn’t replace the supermarket. It doesn’t make a household self-sufficient.
Instead, it brings one small part of food production back within reach. Grow it. Watch it. Harvest it. Start again.
Some things are worth learning before you need them.
CAPABILITY, NOT FEAR. Start small. Learn to grow. Become a little more resilient.
