A plan to install a Growcer modular farming system on a property in Osoyoos has received preliminary approval from the council

“The 40-foot container wall was calling for a design with colour, with plant life and with a story that creates happiness,” said Kelli Ebbs who had been following Joedicke’s work “for some time, absolutely loving his style, his graciousness and his connection to his works.”

Hear Mary Kathryn's passionate discourse on the hard work and dedication it takes to bring to life a hyperlocal food system. We traverse the unique intricacies of setting up a container farm, and the importance of harnessing the power of partnerships in this sector

Today, 20 farm containers are at their hub on 20th Street  S;  another, at Publix in Lakeland. This equals what 65-70 acres of farmland could produce per month. A retail store at the St. Pete location offers local meat, eggs and milk in addition to the lettuce, herbs, and microgreens Brick Street grows

In this guest submission, Madalyn Higgins, dietitian and sustainability manager at Acadia University makes the case for leafy greens. Hydroponic farms are mainly used to grow leafy greens - but what makes this so great?

Toward moving the university into the expanding sustainability field, La Sierra, in 2022, began developing a sustainability park complete with an off-grid experimental geodesic dome, greenhouse, and two environmentally-controlled, technologically outfitted shipping containers for Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA) developed by Freight Farms, an urban farming company

It works by using a shipping container like this to grow the vegetables. There’s no soil, just water. And it’s inside, which will keep crops safe from the weather. (WALA)

Mycro Harvest starts with a shipping container and adds affordable automation alongside AI monitoring to grow mushrooms at scale

"We changed our seed varieties a few times at first to get the exact mix we wanted. Today, we easily harvest 1,000 to 1,100 pounds every time on a 21-24 day cycle," says Thomas Gram, Pure Farms' Head grower and Co-founder.

Urban Crop Solutions' strength lies in the tailored approach that it brings to every project. It does not bring a one-size-fits-all offer, but instead, its process engineers listen to their customers and use their in-house knowledge, expertise, and tools to develop a tailor-made solution for every project

Ceres Greenhouse Solutions has prepared an informative and downloadable PDF that will explore the various federal funding options available to clients looking to start or expand indoor agriculture projects who are seeking funding that they can qualify for and apply towards indoor agriculture costs

These initiatives include a FarmBox hydroponic storage container farm; a student-led leafy greens food service business and hyper-local salad bars featuring produce from local farming partners.

Lemon basil so fresh it tastes like Froot Loops, chocolate mint, orange thyme, and 49 other plant varieties all grown from indoor vertical towers. This is just the start for Farm and Market, the new market and restaurant opening up in RiNo in mid-September

The compact and modular design of GrowPods enables year-round cultivation, allowing farmers to cultivate fresh produce regardless of geographical constraints or seasonal limitations

This innovative approach to agriculture is a radical departure from traditional farming methods, leveraging technology to cultivate crops in vertically stacked layers, often in controlled environments such as buildings, shipping containers, or skyscrapers

Gabe Bialkowski of Ellicottville Greens has 37 container farms with vertical grow racks producing thousands of heads of lettuce a week.

We speak with Ryan McGann, the entrepreneur behind Cubic Acres Farm on Long Island and the owner of not one, not two, but three Freight Farms

When Derek Drake started his company Ditto Foods, he had one mission: to focus on social responsibility and sustainability by providing the highest quality produce to Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) groups, wholesalers, and local restaurants. Now, the 18-wheel semi-truck parked in his driveway is one of the most exciting and innovative farming companies in Chicago

"I like to uncover other perspectives. I think that way too often a lot of news sources and a lot of news outlets, they're kind of influencing the opinion that people will have on a particular subject."

Their hydroponics farm uses vertically what would have been the horizontal equivalent of three acres of farmland and feeds the water and nutrients through a pipe
