Who We Are

Subject-Matter Enthusiasts

We’ve dedicated ourselves to learning everything we need to know about vertical farming and sustainability, and strive to stay on top of any new developments & trends within vertical farming that could aid in our mission.

 

Our experience is rooted in Finance, Biotech, Engineering, Marketing & AI. This experience, when coupled with our unfaltering drive to help the planet, led us to vertical farming, which we firmly believe is the best solution to many of the environmental issues plaguing our planet.

 

For us, this is personal.

Our Core Values

Sustainability. Good health for all. Social and economic security.

 

Our values are rooted in the idea that everyone who can make a positive impact on the world, should. With years of experience solving complex problems in technical fields, and a constant drive to continue learning about the technology and processes that will make vertical farming 100% sustainable, we can make a difference. And we will.

Resource Optimization

Our broad range of technological knowledge puts us in a position to use a massive suite of tech solutions to create vertical farming solutions that can make a real difference.

Full Transparency

One of our key goals is to use blockchain technology to track and publicly share our full environmental impact. Every piece of plastic we use, every ounce of CO2 will eventually be automatically tracked so we can provide the true lifecycle analysis and impact of our products.

Community Partnership

We strive to evangelize the benefits of vertical farming, as well as educate the masses on what it takes to make a fully sustainable food chain possible.

Our Mission

Our mission, to put it simply, is to ensure the planet has clean, sustainable, and healthy sources of food in the midst of climate-induced turmoil.

Our Vision

Our vision is to provide the world with the technology, processes, and expertise is needs to ensure a safe, healthy, consistent supply of food.
