1 PermaCube Revolution This is an off- the- grid solution that allows your family to create all the food, water and energy you need. Aquaponics, greenhouse, chicken tractor, solar dehydrator and solar panels, it s a comprehensive system for someone starting out who only has limited space to work with, allowing you to grow a ton of organic food! Find the system that is right for you.

2 Product Description PermaCube Revolution is the most efficient and diversified food and energy system in the world that we re aware of; creating vital food, and even clean water and energy. PermaCube Revolution is an off-grid food-growing, processing and storage unit, all in one. PCR offers a wide range of food growing and energy creation systems in a small space. The system design allows for a diversity of food products including vegan food production, chicken & eggs, fish, shrimp and other aquatic species. Just about every food type can be grown in a PermaCube Revolution. THE SOLUTION OFF-GRID $9, USD This is the basic unit that is self-contained off-grid. There are other options that can be added on or included at a later date. THIS UNIT INCLUDES 1. HIGH QUALITY CUBE The heart of the PermaCube Revolution system The high quality durability of the steel protects your investment. 2. TWO SOLAR DEHYDRATOR PANELS These panels collect heat from the sun using black, heat absorbing material covered by Plexiglas. The heat is then transferred through a hole in the top of the panel to the PermaCube where inside, there are dehydrating cabinets with trays. The heat rises through the moist produce (or just about any food) and dries it. These foods can be stored for years when packaged property. They are high in nutrients because they are not cooked, but simply dehydrated with the nutrients still intact. 3. SECONDARY GREENHOUSE OR A DETACHABLE CHICKEN TRACTOR The secondary green house is an alternative to the chicken tractor The chicken tractor is made of durable PVC pipes. It is a movable chicken coop shelter with an open floor allowing chickens fresh forage such as grass, weeds and bugs which widens their diet and lowers their feed needs. The birds also have access to fresh air, sunlight, and exercise. 4. WATER CONSERVING GROW BEDS These special growing beds enable you to conserve water and grow the organic food you need. 5. BLACK FLY SOLDIER HARVESTER This black fly soldier harvester/composter is designed to minimize waste so all organic matter will be used and give the most beneficial nutrients where you need it most. 6. EXTRA STORAGE INCLUDED

3 Extra storage space is essential 7. WATER CATCHMENT SYSTEM Water is harvested from the roof. Some of this captured water will be directed through the filtering system for water storage. 8. BIODIGESTOR ENERGY SOURCE Anaerobic bio digester to create energy/methane gas for cooking & heating. 9. SINK Useful for washing food and cleaning up *ACCESSORIES FOR THE ON-GRID SOLUTION ARE AVAILABLE INCLUDING *SOLAR AND WIND ENERGY SYSTEMS OF ANY SIZE CONSULT US TO DESIGN YOUR SYSTEM OR SIMPLY CHOOSE *AQUAPONICS SYSTEM *ATMOSPHERIC WATER GENERATOR (CREATE WATER OUT OF AIR WITH NO WATER SOURCE) Partnered BY: PREPAIR WATER AVAILABLE WATER GENERATORS INCLUDE HOUSEHOLD GALLONS A DAY TO INDUSTRIAL 80 GALLONS UP TO GALLONS A DAY! THE SOLUTION ON-GRID - $11, USD This unit includes the Aquaponics system providing fish and shrimp, plus high volume organic food production, but does not have the solar panel system that could run off-grid and requires an external power source. THIS UNIT INCLUDES 1. HIGH QUALITY CUBE

7 Interested, but don t see quite what you are looking for? us for a consultation so we can work together on your custom solution! happy@alexiscostello.com Interested in a new career? There are Franchise opportunities available as well. With the PCR, the total Franchise cost is only $29,500 and that includes the complete food, water and energy production and storage systems. You need no inventory and this is the most amazing part: you could have a month with zero sales and still be in the black. How is this possible? Because the system produces over $1,500 worth of organic food per month. PCR franchise locations do not need water or electric hook- ups because they produce and run on alternative energies. All that is needed for a winning location is: 1. High visibility, high traffic 2. A place for people to park. 3. Signs that say Open House from sq feet of flat space. At your Open House, you have the opportunity to demonstrate this system and let people know that, with financing, they can have a system that provides all of their families organic food needs on less than $300 per month. Based on our experience, we believe that two to four sales per week is realistic in most areas, but there is potential for so much more. This does not count the additional Self Reliance items, which could be equal to or even exceed PCR sales. At 3 PCR sales per week, the Franchise owner is pulling in over $150,000 per year. If this sounds interesting to you, please get in touch.
