Sustainable Farming
Farming practices that are sustainable or better for the environment
Sustainable Farming Organizations
Square Roots
We are committed to bringing local produce to cities using sustainable farming practices to minimize our environmental impact. Our hydroponic growing systems efficiently recirculate water, growing produce with 95% less water than conventional field farms. We repurpose existing urban infrastructure, like empty parking lots, and use upcycled shipping containers to construct our farms, reducing our impact on the land. We grow more food using fewer resources. And because our produce arrives in local stores within hours of harvest, we minimize the impact on the environment both in our supply chain and in the surrounding area.

Bellwether Coffee
The coffee industry is not sustainable. Current coffee prices don't provide a living income to most of the world’s farmers, causing instability and enduring poverty. The coffee industry creates significant carbon emissions, disproportionately affecting farmers through climate change. We can meaningfully reduce the climate impact of the coffee industry by advocating for the widespread adoption of electric and distributed roasting to reduce our carbon footprint. We can support long term economic health for farmers by paying coffee farmers equitable prices and investing in farm communities where we source coffee.

Hippo Harvest
Hippo Harvest is a CEA startup developing greenhouse systems that are cost competitive with fields. We use passive hydroponic methods, robotics, and machine learning as tools to keep capex low, increase productivity, and achieve faster learning cycles relative to today's CEA methods. We aim to transition fresh produce to a more sustainable future.
