Anyone interested in exploring the wonderful world of Home-Grown Spirulina? Learn all about growing algae for superfood and biofuel in an upcoming AlgaeLab workshop!

DIY Algaculture Workshop:

Grow your own superfoods and biofuels at home...
Taught by AlgaeLab.org Founder and NASA Scientist Dr. Aaron Wolf Baum

Sunday, March 4th , 2012

Ace Monster Toys (acemonstertoys.org)

Oakland, CA (near Berkeley and Emeryville)

Grow plentiful food and fuel in small spaces.

Algae reproduce exponentially, but do not require land, soil, or fresh water. They can be harvested every day, producing much more than land crops, and some of them (e.g. Spirulina) have amazing health benefits as food.

You can grow algae too — in your own home — and we will show you how!

Come to the Hands-On Home-Grow Algae workshop series. Go home with your own Personal Photo-BioReactor and everything you need to grow your own Spirulina superfood algae in your own home!


One personal algae photo-bioreactor in one sunny window can provide enough spirulina to significantly supplement the diet of one person every day. Larger installations can provide biofuel and organic fertilizer, and perform important services, such as cleaning up water, and eliminating greenhouse gases from exhaust.

In addition to an introduction to an overview of algae farming, and a discussion of the practicalities of setting up your own farm, we will have an extended hands-on section of the workshop where I will show you how to set up and run your personal photo-bioreactor kit — it’s easy!

Course Fees:
***Special deal for workshop participants***: Workshop plus complete 10-gallon home-grow kit for growing your own Spirulina. The kit includes tank, heater, air pump, air diffuser, air tubing, valves, starter and make-up nutrient powder mix, pH testing, harvesting tube, harvesting cloth, clips, plug timer, and 1 liter live spirulina – everything you need to get started growing your own superfood spirulina! $299 – save $50.
$99 for workshop only
Send payment via PayPal (payment@algaelab.org), or by mailing a check to:

To receive the personal photo-bioreactor at the workshop, be sure to pay at least a week before the course date so that materials can be ordered…
See you there!

Grow plentiful food and fuel in a small space.

Algae can make impressive amounts of food or fuel but do not require land, soil, or fresh water. They can be harvested every day, producing many times more output than land crops, and some of them (e.g. Spirulina) have amazing health benefits as food.

You can grow algae too — in your own home — and I would love to show you how.

Special offer: along with the workshop, all participants will be able to take home a one liter bottle of live spirulina culture to start your own tank or pond — this alone is worth far more than the course fee…
