SproutsIO

We’ve been out of touch with what we eat—it’s time for that to change. With SproutsIO, you can reliably grow fresh fruits and vegetables indoors, year-round, soil-free, using an app-controlled system that learns from your preferences. No matter your experience in a garden, SproutsIO makes the process of growing food pleasurable and rewarding.

Based on original research initiated by Jennifer Broutin Farah at the MIT Media Lab in 2011, SproutsIO was designed to help change our relationship to food by connecting people to the source of their produce and allowing them to experience the joy of growing their own. Three years of intense research and development has culminated in the world’s first-ever intelligent, plug and play, hybrid hydroculture system.

Setup is simple

Start growing in under 5 minutes. Plug in your SproutsIO, and download and launch the SproutsIOGrow mobile app to connect your SproutsIO to WiFi. Place the sIO seed refill in the basin, the camera will recognize the plants you are growing and confirm recommended settings. Just add water and now you are growing.
