Why IBC Totes?

Intermediate bulk containers (IBC) offer huge cost savings. A 1,100 gallon tank can easily cost $4,000 with shipping--yikes!

IBC totes cost the installer less than $1,000 when you follow the methods in this course. You can also reclaim totes rather than buying them new and take perfectly usable materials out of the waste stream!

Gabriel Hahn

Gabriel loves connecting himself and others to the innumerable joys and wonders brought to us by the living world, and is captivated by moving water and everything that grows. He began working in organic vegetable production in 2007 and soon found himself living on permaculture farms in Ecuador and Peru, catalyzing a passion to use water responsibly, localize the food system, and live more communally with people and land. In 2012, Gabriel started and managed Seeds of Hope Farm in Spanish Lake, MO, where for 5 years he honed a focus on increased access to and education around local, healthy food. Looking to expand his working knowledge of plants and integrated living systems, he then spent two years at Brambleberry Farm in Southern Indiana. As Water Systems Manager, Gabriel oversees design and implementation of water management and retention systems.
