TOUR OUR FARM

The Oko Farms Aquaponics Farm and Education Center is NYC’s largest outdoor and only publicly accessible aquaponics farm. Located along the East River, the farm cultivates a variety of freshwater fish including catfish, tilapia and crawfish along with a wide diversity of vegetables and herbs.

Learn about all of the different plants and aquatic animals that live on the farm and how they support each other in a symbiotic relationship. Our guided tour will introduce participants to aquaponics and all of the various biological components that make up our farm. Participants will also take an up close look at the various hardware that support the wellbeing of our plants and animals.

Please dress comfortably for outdoor weather, wear close-toed shoes, sunscreen, and a hat. We also recommend bringing a water bottle.

The tours take place from August - October (Wednesdays and Fridays) and are open to groups of 5-30 people.

Sliding scale pricing: Oko Farms is committed to creating a sliding scale pricing structure​ in order to effectively engage groups that are representative of NYC’s diversity and to fairly value our labor.
