With the help of our family and friends Uber Green Farms just simply wants to make your farm to table experience the best it can be.
Uber Green Farms is Indys first Vertical soilless farm. The farm produces 16,000 pounds of microgreens annually using PURE water, No Fertilizers No Pesticides and No Soil. (Except Sunflower)
All 85 plus varieties of microgreens are grown in 100% Food-Safe plastic trays.
With many years of research, trial and error and a whole lot of failures, Uber Green Farms has developed and designed processes and systems to amazing flavorful and beyond organic produce. All the microgreens grown at the Vertical Farm are sold living either on specially designed coco fiber pads, or in our hydroponic designed system, thus allowing clients to harvest to order eliminating all waste and little to no loss of nutritional value. Special thanks to City Hydro, Curtis Stone and JM Fortier for sharing your insight with us and making our jobs a little easier.
The Vertical Farm uses less than $150.00 in electricity per month and less than 10 gallons of water per day. The microgreens and heirloom lettuce are grown on custom racks in a climate controlled room under the specially designed LED lights.
