As seen in:
Our all-in-one system is the easiest and most efficient way to start farming up to 6 acres.
By combining climate-smart technology with regenerative farming practices, Farm from a Box helps conserve water, improve soil quality, and increase nutrient rich-farm production. We help take the guesswork out of starting your farm by creating a complete kit tailored to your needs.
Clean technology powers healthy, locally grown, nutritious food.
Every person should have access to healthy, nutrient-rich food and every farmer should be able to provide for themselves and their community in a safe, environmentally-beneficial way. Food production is about more than just growing crops—it provides independence, opportunity, and a way to reconnect with the food we eat.

Commercial Production
Revitalize local food hubs & supply chains
We help increase production along the entire agricultural value chain with an independent infrastructure that can revitalize and modernize local food production. Stronger local food economies fuel new businesses and create greater access to healthy, locally grown food.
Upskill Training
Technology & farm training for job creation
Farm from a Box is an ideal system to train and develop the next generation of farmers to produce nutritious food with clean technology. Our system encourages entrepreneurship by providing a platform for youth, women, veterans, and other underserved groups to gain the skill set and experience needed for a career in agriculture.
Farm to Table
On-site fresh food production
Our system can provide locally grown farm-fresh ingredients for a variety of consumers, like restaurants, corporate offices, hospitals, health facilities, or retreat centers. The eye-catching toolkit offers easy on-site crop production with modern technology. The high-quality fresh food grown right on location is an experience customers and employees will love sinking their teeth into.
School Programs
Improve nutrition & education
Increase healthy food access while improving students’ focus on learning and their health. Bring the classroom outdoors and educate students on nutrition, STEM learning (science, technology, engineering, and math), and vocational skills.
Urban Farming
All-in-one kit for community farming
Turn unproductive land into an urban oasis of freshly grown food. Our complete farm system is an easy way to jumpstart a community farm and integrate healthy food access into the tapestry of a local community, housing development, or urban center. Powered by renewable energy, it operates independently of the grid—making it easier to run and manage.
Livelihoods & Resilience
Increase healthy food access, rebuild & recover
Our turnkey infrastructure can be quickly deployed to jumpstart food production after a disaster or increase healthy food access to underserved populations. It can reduce ongoing costs of food distribution, increase nutrition and livelihood opportunities, and help rebuild self-reliance after crises.

An empowering solution to a global need.
Small-scale, rural farmers are the backbone of our global food supply and are vulnerable to the effects of climate change and drought. Many rural areas struggle with limited access to infrastructure or necessary farming technology that could strengthen and stabilize their local food production.
Farm from a Box is a powerful tool for global food security and economic empowerment.
Farm from a Box isn’t just about food production.
It’s about strengthening local communities around the world and enabling them to grow their own nutritious food with clean technology in regions where it is needed most.
We are doing our part to achieve the United Nations Sustainable Goals.
