Can Vertical Farming Disrupt the Agriculture Industry? | Eater

"A 40,000-square-foot hydroponic warehouse farm about 30 miles outside Boston that began commercial shipments in 2015; it runs on a mix of renewable and nonrenewable energy and—according to company leadership—currently has a carbon footprint comparable to field-grown greens. The operation highlights the high retail price of vertically grown produce (a 4.5-ounce carton of spring mix sells for $3.99, roughly $15.96 per pound) and plans to introduce cogeneration and context-appropriate renewables as it expands to reduce energy costs and emissions." - Steve Holt

I always purchase Fresh Box Farms produce when I need ultra fresh Spinach, Kale, or just mixed greens for a salad. I'm in love with the idea of Hydroponically grown produce that's literally headquartered in my home town! Their growing process is super efficient and is most definitely the best way to grow more fresh, clean and local produce for the foreseeable future. I see a lot of success for Fresh Box Farms in the coming years, just based on their hydroponic systems alone!
