In this episode of Planet Business, we're with Nature Fresh Farms to discover why vertical farming is the future of sustainable food production.
The indoor greenhouses at Nature Fresh Farms are home to thousands of tomato, cucumber, and pepper plants. The plants are all growing up towards the roof of the greenhouse, regularly being attached to wires rising towards the ceiling.
This is vertical farming, a practice widely used in Europe, particularly in the Netherlands, proving the most space-efficient way of producing vegetables that we know of. The plants are fed the perfect solution of all of the minerals they need to thrive, receive ample sun and warmth from the glass greenhouse, and their water supply is in a closed-loop system, ensuring no waste.
No pesticides are used, bees and other 'good bugs' fly around the warehouse to ensure that the pest count is kept low.
Vertical farming is the most sustainable solution to food production, and not only that, but Nature Fresh Farms is planting trees with One Tree Planted!

I want to plant trees with you guys, how can I do that? Also, this type of content is over produced. Personality driven content is what brings in the views.
