Aeroponic farming uses 98% less water and 90% less space than traditional agriculture to grow more food faster. It is a form of hydroponics where plant roots are periodically sprayed with nutrient solution rather than being suspended in it. Aeroponic farms use dramatically fewer resources and can operate in urban areas, making fresh produce more accessible and sustainable as population and resources decline.

Nearly 24 million Americans live in

Elsewhere, produce often travels up
to 3,000 miles before it reaches a
plate, compromising freshness, flavor,
and nutrition.

BIRTH OF THE FARMERPRENEUR

WHAT IS A FARMERPRENEUR?
Farmerpreneurs are mission-minded individuals with an agenda of social
change — aiming to make nutritious food available to all. These forward-
thinking farmers many not have an ounce of agricultural experience, but
with aeroponic farming, they don’t need it.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

INSIDE A TOWER FARM


A study at the University of Mississippi — one of the best agriculture research
universities in the U.S. — found the Tower Farms aeroponic process can grow
30% more food up to 3 times faster than traditional methods, using a fraction
of the water and land.

Hanging in vertical towers,


plants are showered with a natural
nutrient solution that encourages
rapid, healthy growth. In just a few
weeks after planting, crops are
ready to harvest.

GROWING MORE FOOD
IN LESS SPACE
THE FUTURE OF FOOD
IS VERTICAL
If we continue growing food by
conventional methods, we’ll need about
270 million more acres of farmland by
2050 to feed our surging population.

The problem is that we actually lose


about 3,000 acres of farmland to urban
development daily.

But since aeroponic systems can grow


plants vertically, farmers can now
produce food in a fraction of the space, With up to 5,000 plants in a 2,200-square-foot greenhouse,
Living Towers (Eustis, Florida) services the local community

Tower Farms can produce up to

2 million plants per year.
