The Astro Farmer STEM Kit lets kids explore the challenge of growing plants in space.
- Using real Lunar soil simulant, students test germination and growth across different soil mixtures, just like NASA scientists.
- Perfect for ages 8 - 18, this hands-on science kit supports classrooms, homeschool, and STEM clubs while making science fun, engaging, and educational.
- Easy-to-use Science Fair project to explore how humans will grow plants on the Moon
Designed for curious kids (and curious parents), this STEM-based kit guides kids through a multi-week experiment comparing plant growth across different soil mixtures, just like space scientists preparing for future Moon missions.
Kids will build hypotheses, measure plant growth, and track results in their observation journal while learning about sustainability, space exploration, and what it really takes to grow food beyond Earth.
