Welcome to The New Vertical Farm! We are vertical gardening at it's Finest! |
||
The New Vertical Farm is a whole new concept in vertical gardening. No 20 story building, No exteme costs and everyone benefits. We are capable of growing 10800 pounds of produce at one time in our buildings and 1280 pounds of produce in our portable units. We are unique as we have our units in existing buildings that are were once vacant. Our portable units are one of a kind, never been produced shipping containers that can be placed any where in the world!  |

At a time when eating has become a political statement, the government is paying over $19 billion a year to subsidize commodity crops in the global market. Federal US officials say that nearly 40% of all farm income now comes directly from government subsidies, and the previous farm bill signed by President Bush will pay $190 billion over 10 years, which includes $83 billion in new spending prior to the new stimulus package. Encompassed in this here are two market niches that are growing at an amazing rate, the organic market and the simple farmers' market. Both markets are closely related as food security and safety are at the top of every government and personal agenda. The organic market provides less than 2% of the nation's food supply and takes up less than 1% of its cropland. But organic farms are flourishing as never before. Over the past decade the market for organic food has grown by 17% to 22% and every year 50% of North American consumers occasionally reach for something labeled organic. Sales for organic foods are expected to top $25 billion this year. Conglomerates as big as Heinz, General Mills and Walmart are now launching or buying organic lines and selling them in mainstream supermarkets.* With no subsidies and no middle men, farmers' markets have increased by 79% since 1994, and the number of farmers who sell at them has more than tripled to over 70,000. "Right now, green markets are growing faster than anything in agriculture," said Dr. Steven Blank, a farm economist at the University of California at Davis and the author of three books on the subject. People want to purchase their food locally, know where it was grown and know the safety and quality are regulated under policies under their government’s control. |
