Exciting start to @indooragcon 2017! We're here to talk with #moderfarmers about leveraging appropriate #verticalfarming equipment to grow better food for their #local communities. #zipgrowing #zipgrow #agtech #agritech #localfood #hydroponics #grow #verticalfarm #eatlocal #sustainablefarming #technology #indoorag #indoorfarming (at IECSC @ Las Vegas Convention Center)

What makes #UpstartFarmers unique? While they share many common characteristics like being innovative, hustling and working hard, or just being able to persevere through the ups and downs of starting a business, there’s another trait that makes this network of modern farmers unique. That differentiating trait is that they all approach #verticalfarming from a pragmatic angle and not as some pie-in-the-sky hypothetical proposition. That’s because they know the technology they choose doesn’t have to be overly complicated and sci-fi.   Their pragmatic approach to #technology means they choose designed simplicity over headline-grabbing gadgetry. In fact, they see “technology” as merely new tools to do things better, not to add more stress to their lives. Upstart Farmers like Localize, are committed to taking a pragmatic approach to feeding their local communities better food with appropriate #ZipGrow technology. #localfood #localfarmer #smallfarmers #ag #farminglife #farmtotable #farmtoplate #verticalfarm #verticalfarming #agtech #business #marketing #biz #entrepreneur #urbanfarm #urbanfarming #eatlocal #betterfood #greenhouse #indoorag #indoorfarms #indoorfarming #farmingindoors #agritech #verticalfarms (at Edina, Minnesota)

We had a blast the last few days at the #nearfuturesummit talking to Near Futurists (i.e. people who want to get shit done... now) about controlled environment Ag. There are some amazing innovations happening in the realms of transportation, neuroscience, and education, and we are grateful to have played a part. A BIG thanks to our friends at @nearfuturenow and @ourfoods_org for inviting us and helping us get live plants on site! Here's to a bold #nearfuture! 🌱🌿🌱🌿🌱 #zipgrow #ZipGrowing #agtech #agritech #entrepreneur #localfarm #localfood #verticalfarm #verticalfarms #verticalfarming #fresh #foodtech #nearfuture #nearfuturelifestyle #foodeconomy #futureoffood #indoorfarming #indooragriculture #indoorfarm #indoorag #technology #innovation (at Estancia La Jolla)

Container farms are a great (and popular!) way to bring fresh local food to almost any location, regardless of climate. But not all container farms are created equal. It's important aspiring #modernfarmers do their homework to ensure they get the farm that will help them accomplish their goals. Stay tuned to our channels this coming week for more info about this topic and in the mean time, here's a nice shot of the kale walls inside a container farm built from the ground up to help innovative farmers grow #betterfood. Have a great week! 👍 #Repost @smartgreens ・・・ Sunday night check in. -15 centigrade outside and inside is a wall of kale growing perfectly. #farmlife #zipgrow #zipgrowing #agritech #agtech #foodtech #fresh #farmtotable #eatlocal #eathealthy #verticalfarm #verticalfarms #verticalfarming #verticalgardens #verticalgarden #indoorfarming #indoorfarm #indoorag #inventingthefuture #hydroponics #growfoodanywhere #grow #modernfarming #urbanfarm #urbanfarming #upstartfarmers

Rise and shine! It's the greatest day of the week. What are you doing this week to move your farm plans forward and get one step closer to growing #betterfood for your local community using appropriate #verticalfarming technology? Here's a quick teaser clip from the weekly operations at @localizefarm - a high density #indoorfarm serving the Twin Cities a full line of packaged, ultra fresh #herbs. A former container farm, Localize transitioned to a full scale vertical farm to improve workflows, increase production and make scaling up a lot easier. Stay tuned for the full video to see more of their #ZipFarm and hear more about how they've built their vertical farming business. 🌿🌱💦👀 #farmtotable #business #entrepreneur #zipgrowing #knowyourfarmer #zipgrow #agtech #agritech #urbanfarm #indoorag #indoorfarming #localfood #localfarmer #eatlocal #edina #minnesota #minneapolis #grow #urbanfarmer #upstartfarmers #smallfarm #sustainable #farmlife #farmtofork (at Edina, Minnesota)

Thinking about starting an #indoorfarm? One question you'll want to ask yourself when looking for a building is... "Will my building meet my farm’s needs?" ⠀ ⠀ Indoor controlled environment farms often require substantial amounts of power and the fact is not all buildings are equipped with the type of electricity at the capacity these facilities require to operate.⠀ ⠀ When searching for a facility, it helps to know exactly what type of equipment you’re using and the energy requirements of each.⠀ ⠀ Before making a decision on a building, you must know how much power you’ll need to support your growing equipment, lighting, pumps, HVAC, automation equipment, dehumidifiers, fans, computers, etc. Growers serious about scaling up should also consider any increases in power requirements for future expansions.⠀ ⠀ Depending on the equipment you choose, should be paired with a qualified rep that can help you identify not only the best equipment to meet your farming goals, but also work with you to identify your electrical loads.⠀ ⠀ Having these exact numbers will allow you to seek out a building with the proper electrical capacity to make your farm work the way it should.⠀ ⠀ If you're ready to work with a guide, give us a call!
