Groundwork Hudson Valley's Science Barge

Great experience for our family. This place is very well organized with local herbs, vegetables plantation, hydroponic garden, water garden with fish. Enriched with knowledge and tools for young minds.

This floating farm is excellent for both children and adult to learn and understand a bit more about different type of plants and how they grow. We were given a guided tour of the facility and were shown insects that are good and bad for a plant base environment. In addition, the floating farm also generates its own electrical source with multiple solar panels across the boat. Defenetly a place to check out if you are in the area.

Today we visited Science Barge. Awesome experience so much new things to learn , employees are also good , she gave us a great tour with explaining importance of science barge as well as sustainability awareness. Its really great program.

Great educational place for grade schoolers but everyone can go there to learn some basic science. I enjoyed the experience.

This was a sweet experience with my grandchildren. The staff were so engaging with them from the moment we boarded the barge. They loved the different aspects of the experience - from learning about different ways plants can grow to the water creatures they are studying.

I love this place. Its so important in so many ways in how it demonstrates many old and new technologies. I always learn something when I come and not necessarily what I thought I'd learn. I was here yesterday, Tuesday December 15, 2020 and I came with only one goal in mind and that was to photograph oyster populations that would be visible in the super low tide. I did that but had so many other take aways. Some of those were related to the oysters and many others had nothing to do with them.

“The Science Barge” The Science Barge is an incredible ongoing demonstration of the potential of urban farming. What makes the barge great is that the crew can make it a great experience for kids while also educating adults. The depth of the science going on at the barge goes far beyond what one can learn in an hour-long visit. Definitely one of the.

I visited the Science Barge, which is a self sustaining boat docked in the iconic Hudson River in the Yonkers waterfront area, which is beautifully updated with some great restaurants, including Xavier on the Hudson pretty impressive with it's solar panels, hydroponics farming, compost, and recycled water. The fruits and vegetables are beautiful and tasty.

Love coming here with the kiddos. The barge has hydroponics that sometimes you can pick.. we got pear tomatoes this time around and got to smash some lantern . Nice area to see the water after grabbing some coffee from the shop before you enter. Very quiet and breeze to see and feel the Hudson as the barge moves up and down
