About

Biospheric Foundation was a socio-ecological urban research practice and community interest company based in Salford. The organization developed integrated urban farming systems, including aquaponics, rooftop polytunnels, vermiculture, mushroom laboratories, and bio-façade prototypes to test sustainable food production, resource recycling, and hyper-local distribution in post-industrial urban environments.

Services

Socio-Ecological Urban Systems Research And Design

Provides collaborative research, design, and feasibility modeling for advanced urban ecological infrastructure. The service delivers research into agroforestry, closed-loop aquaponics, mushroom cultivation, and building-integrated bio-façades to help municipalities, academic institutions, and architectural partners deploy sustainable food and waste systems within densely built city environments.

Educational Programs And Technical Guided Tours

Delivers structured environmental education programs, technical facility tours, and hands-on urban farming workshops for schools, community members, and professional groups. Participants gain direct practical knowledge of circular nutrient cycling, vermiculture soil remediation, and sustainable urban agriculture through interactive demonstrations in operational farm environments.

Sustainable Venue And Meeting Space Hire

Offers unique eco-venue hire services for corporate meetings, professional conferences, and private dinner events situated within functioning urban agricultural spaces. Clients access rooftop gardens, polytunnels, and indoor aquaponics settings while receiving on-site hospitality and locally sourced catering options.
