Our Goal:

 is to create a solution that utilizes container technology to enable hyperlocal food production in urban landscapes, disaster relief, ocean vessels, northern territories, and arid deserts. This solution aims to produce commercial-scale quantities of food as close as possible to the source of consumption on the smallest possible footprint, completely rethinking how we are producing food today.

To achieve this goal, we are:

1. Utilizing container technology to enable hyperlocal food production in urban landscapes, disaster relief, ocean vessels, northern territories, and arid deserts.
2. Incorporating water use efficiencies and climate control capabilities into the system to ensure optimal growth conditions for crops.
3. We are developing an intelligent operational management app that makes farming as easy as driving a car.
4. Implementing hydroponic growing techniques to produce safe, healthy, fresh, and sustainable food without polluting the environment or compromising on quality or safety standards.
5. Designing products that will revolutionize culture by changing people’s perceptions about agriculture from the romantic views of farmers working in the field to cutting-edge technology with a respectable career in cities across the globe.
6. Investigating opportunities for utilizing this technology for natural and man-made disaster relief as well as potential applications for food production on other planets such as Mars and The Moon.

Why shipping containers?

Retrofitting a shipping container with an efficient food production system could help to alleviate some of the most pressing challenges of the industry now

Shipping containers are:

· standardized

· mobile 

· modular 

· scalable

· stackable 

· abundant 

During my research, a close member of my family was diagnosed with cancer and it was during this time that I stumbled upon superfoods like wheatgrass and kale both of which can be grown in a container.

Sadly, he passed however it was in this tragedy that I realized this technology had value not only in what I originally thought to mass-produce the calories 

but could mass-produce the nutrients that could extend and improve quality of life and

that was my inspiration to go forward.

Fact:

· container farm uses a hundred times less land

· 20 times less water and fertilizer

· Requires minimal labour

· No heavy machinery 

· Best of all it requires no pesticides 

· Efficient use of Water

These efficiencies are incredibly exciting because it allows us to significantly

expand the possibilities for agriculture in three key areas 

· How can it be done 

· Where it can be done 

· Who can it be done by

when launching a new farming operation typically requires careful

land selection soil remediation and heavy machinery purchases all of which

are time-consuming and expensive even after all the initial prep work is done

and done well the operational success can still be derailed by adverse weather

conditions 

Another concern is the long-term human health hazard as well as the environmental degradation from the prolonged and heavy use of fertilizer and pesticide use when it comes to chemical inputs less is always better

Turn-key operational systems can be deployed in almost any region that

has power and water. 

We can break the bond between agriculture and geography climate and logistics but we also produce a system that produces none of the negative impacts on people and the planet that is typically associated with agriculture.

These efficiencies allow us to become creative with where we can start doing farming 

Further by taking the container and putting it directly into the high-traffic urban landscape and enabling hyperlocal food production by integrating the technology directly into the communities for which it will be producing food, 

we will not only be able to create the safest but also the most transparent food and 

we don't have to stop in the urban landscapes.

What about the northern territories and arid deserts of the Middle East?

Locations that have been previously considered either inhospitable unfeasible or uneconomical for food production.

This technology can thrive in these locations partly because of the water use efficiencies but also because of the climate control capabilities.

Enabling underprivileged communities to form co-ops growing food meters from their tables and most importantly keeping their monies in their communities rather than sending it to distant places where their food was grown.

one of the most exciting opportunities would be to optimize this technology, 

we can use it for natural and man-made disaster relief and hopefully in the not-so-distant future for food production on the moon and mars.

By bringing the farm into the city and pairing it with an intelligent operational management app we can make farming as easy as driving a car.

I hope this technology will inspire the next generation by showing them how beautiful, simple, and rewarding it can be.

they are fundamentally changing their perceptions about agriculture in their school’s parking lot, learning how to grow what they consume. 

This may be one of the key drivers to improving our current food system

changing people's perceptions will have a far bigger impact on revolutionizing culture than any technological innovation can. 

Already indoor hydroponically grown food is making it onto our restaurant menus and our shelves.

Gone are the days when people blindly associate flavour, quality, and safety with a romantic view of a farmer working under the Sun and tilling the soil

Here are the days when people begin to associate agriculture with cutting-edge technology and a respectable career in the city.

Enabling anyone anywhere to produce the safest healthiest freshest and most sustainable food without polluting their environment.

Committed to developing products that would make food safety nutritional security and distribution inequality a thing of the past and we can start making a bigger impact in the agricultural industry today here on earth and tomorrow in space.
