🔵 Another Vertical Lake Module. Another Step Forward!
On Saturday 14 June 2026, our co-founders Jack Oyugi and Jez Lofts officially commissioned Module 3 of the Vertical Lake facility in Nairobi, joined by members of our team, partners, collaborators, and supporters who have helped us reach this point.

For us, this isn’t just another set of tanks coming online.
It’s a 33% increase in our production capacity for both organic fish protein and Blue Harvest™ plant nutrition, bringing us one step closer to the vision we’ve been building towards: a scalable circular system that connects the blue and green economies.
Every new module means more clean, traceable protein.
More regenerative nutrition for crops and soils.
More proof that circular food systems can work commercially and sustainably.
We’re grateful to everyone who joined us to mark the occasion and to those who continue to support the journey.
Three modules down.
Many more to come.

🔬 THE PROTEIN CLINIC | CASE 09. Stop the Noise: Farm Hygiene, Biosecurity & Smart Application
Technology like drones becomes powerful
only when combined with living, organic systems.
Have you ever seen a farm with too much activity but little results?
This case is from Mirogi (Dhiwa).
The farmer’s complaint was simple:
Too much labour.
Too much spending.
Too much noise on the farm.
But very little results.
Workers moving in and out.
Tools shared everywhere.
Fertiliser applied in bulk.
Yet the farm remained unproductive.

only when combined with living, organic systems.
Have you ever seen a farm with too much activity but little results?
“Protein is Life — and today, our planet is becoming protein-malnourished.”
Over the years, through Biofit Feeds and now Vertical Lake, one truth has become clear:
Protein is the missing link across soils, plants, food systems, ecosystems, and even industry.
At Vertical Lake, we’re building a new solution — regenerative protein produced through clean, traceable vertical aquaculture.
In my latest article, I share why global protein shortages are silently weakening ecosystems — and how BlueHarvest BioProtein is restoring soil health, plant strength, and ecological balance.
If you care about food security, soil regeneration, sustainable farming, or climate-smart innovation, this is worth a read.
