Welcome to BIGH
How do we do it?
BIGH integrates farms with existing buildings to benefit from waste energy and reduce their environmental impact. We design our farms with circular economy in mind, our building materials are cradle-to-cradle where possible, sustainable and can be up-cycled. Our farms are designed to make the best use of water and energy, and to reduce the heat island effect. We create spaces to encourage greater biodiversity in cities.

Brussels Aquaponics Farm
Our farm combines a 2000m2 high-tech greenhouse and a 2000 m2 productive outdoor garden on the roof of Foodmet market hall, in the heart of Brussels, at the famous Abattoir site in Anderlecht.
We have developed a state of the art aquaponic system where fish, fruits, vegetables and herbs are grown in a closed & zero waste loop.
BIGH uses the latest sustainable technology, we capture building energy loss, recycle rainwater from the site and use renewable solar energy.
We believe in food transparency, so if you’re interested in how we farm at BIGH, please go to our visits page to book a tour of the farm.
