After building a career in AI and tech, FX Rouxel set out to solve a massive problem: how to grow real food at home—without soil, land, or waste. He launched Gardyn, a direct-to-consumer hydroponic system that lets anyone grow fresh produce indoors with minimal effort and zero green thumb. Since launch, Gardyn users have grown over 3.5 million pounds of food, saved 60 million gallons of water, and eliminated 1.9 million pounds of food waste—all from their own kitchens. In this episode, FX shares how he turned a simple idea into one of the most innovative companies in home agriculture—and how technology can actually bring us closer to nature, not further from it.
