About Urban FarmingWhy Choose Aquaponic Urban Farming?
During the past decade a series of trends have created a substantial and profitable market for affordable, local, safe, fresh, flavorful and nutritious produce that is currently underserved.
Growing For The Community
In 2018 the costs for groceries increased at the highest rate since 2005. Many financial experts are currently forecasting significant inflation during the next few years. As food prices tend to be especially vulnerable to inflation consumers typically turn to less expensive food sources such as produce to feed their families.
Conserving Energy
Compared to traditional farming methods, produce grown locally and hydroponically uses significantly less energy per pound. The Company’s vehicles will be either electric or hybrid which will also help save energy.
Fresh Produce Daily
As the produce will be harvested only hours before it reaches the store shelves and chef’s kitchens, it will taste better and be more nutritious than what is currently available.
