Agriculture and Marine Resources Minister Jomo Campbell highlighted the advantages of container farming during yesterday’s handover ceremony, noting the country’s challenges with climate, land availability, and soil quality.

At Sananbio, we're committed to revolutionizing agriculture through indoor vertical farming. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to our valued customers and supportive peers for their trust and encouragement.

Welcome to the latest episode of Grow Food Here, brought to you by Freight Farms! In this installment, we shine a spotlight on the remarkable efforts of Broadview Federal Credit Union in Albany, NY, as they embark on a journey to revolutionize food production in their community.

MHUSD is also one of the first school districts in the nation to use Freight Farms FarmTech, a program for two freight containers at MHUSD’s high schools. These containers produce 450 pounds of spring mix lettuce per week and can grow 8,000 heads of lettuce from just one shower’s worth of water.

Container farming, also known as shipping container farming, is revolutionizing how we grow crops. It offers an innovative solution to traditional farming methods, allowing individuals to cultivate fresh produce in confined urban spaces or areas with limited access to arable land. 

The community farm’s headquarters is located in West L.A. in a similarly space-saving location – inside a shipping container at the West Los Angeles VA Medical Center. “It’s pretty remarkable. It’s the equivalent of two and a half acres of outdoor production inside one shipping container, using about 90% less water and 95% less land,” Levy said.

Urban farming within educational settings has seen a significant upswing in recent years. Schools across the globe are increasingly turning to agriculture as a dynamic teaching tool that offers students a unique perspective on where food comes from and how sustainable practices can be integrated into daily life.

Growcer develops vertical farms in modular containers to help combat food insecurity in challenging climates. Growcer said it has over 80 farms across the country growing more than 10 million servings of leafy greens annually.

The second thing I would do is call the CEO of Musk’s ‘The Boring Company, and the CEO of Freight Farms. Just eleven years ago Freight Farms began installing a hydroponic farm inside a standard freight container. It just happens that a freight container will fit inside The Boring Company’s tunnel that is 12 feet in diameter.

In the last two months, they've harvested 200 pounds of lettuce and 40 pounds of radishes from the hydroponic farm.

Two Freight Farm growing containers and a cooler container were delivered and installed at the Purdue Student Farm.

The farms can be in built in warehouses, greenhouses or, in the case of BoomaFood, specially designed shipping containers. The farms use artificial light, temperature, water and humidity control, meaning they can provide more food on a smaller footprint than traditional farming.

How can we weather the strains our changing climate places on the infrastructure of our global food supply chain? The innovative technologies behind modular farming offer new solutions. Rick Vanzura, CEO of Freight Farms, joins sustainability and climate contributor Bonnie Schneider.

Freight farming has many benefits compared to traditional farming, especially in cities. These small, self-contained units can be placed in various locations like parking lots and rooftops, making them versatile for urban agriculture.

Nature's Miracle Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: NMHI) ("Nature's Miracle"), a leader in vertical farming technology and infrastructure, today announced the successful manufacturing and shipment of its first two customized container farms in its proprietary "MiracleTainer" series to Growterra, LLC, an Ohio-based vertical farming company.

Thanks to a generous donor, two freight farms that will be used for controlled environment demonstrations and research will soon hit the road to West Lafayette.

Growcer is set to leverage this significant capital injection to accelerate its growth trajectory, expand its market reach into more regions such as the northeast U.S., and enhance its product offerings beyond leafy greens and modular structures.

Our diverse farmers share a common goal: providing fresh, local food to their communities.
