This is an Indoor Urban Vertical Hydroponic Farm that was built and engineered in 2015

The farm and its brand has been successful for over 4 years, the owner is moving on and has taken a managerial position with a large Indoor Vertical Farming company.

This is an extremely functional hydroponic vertical farm. 1800 Sq ft with 18 foot ceilings.

This facility is able to produce 8 acres worth of food in just 4% of 1 acre (That’s 200x).

The present owner has grown 70+ varieties of microgreens, countless greens, herbs, and edible flowers, and small vining fruits.

The facility was built in collaboration with the DuPage County Public Health Department, and has been certified by the USDA and Third Party Certifiers like Primus, etc.

Everything in the space is food grade, and the facilities walls were built with the finest grade vapor/ particulate barriers inside the walls.

The lights are 60% fluorescent and 40% LED.

You will have access to all lights, but I would encourage you to invest in more LEDS.

This is a turn key facility ready to operate efficiently and at full capacity.

All materials are food grade safe and USDA/third party compliant.

Misters run on a very user friendly IPAD app that can be programmed down to the minute.

Separate Harvest Room
2 food grade tables and 3 food grade stainless steel shelves can hold your packaging and accompany 2-3 harvesters. There is a small walk in cooler in the room - 5’x5’x 6’ Tall.

There is also a small hand washing sink.

5 - Reservoirs
3 - 200 gal, 2 500 gallon
1 - 500 gal for microgreen system
1 - 500 gal for greens/herbs/edible flowers system
2 - 200 gal for vining fruits - grow / fruit cycles
1 - 200 gal for cleaning

The system is plumbed so that there are 5 water lines (one for each reservoir) that run parallel, and the cleaning water (generally bleach, etc) can be run through the system while the rest of the shelves are still running their proper water solutions.

For each reservoir there is a powerful pump that goes to the system, but also a seperate pump with separate water lines that go through a filter, then a water chiller, then through a dosing system, then back in the reservoir. So the water is constantly being purified and regulated for the system.

There are also Air pumps and lines for each reservoir.

*The current dosing systems are slowly but surely breaking down - I would strongly recommend purchasing new dosing systems for each reservoir you plan on operating.

3 - 48” x 48” Nurseries on one reservoir
