Here in #Maine... #VerticalHarvest hydroponic indoor farm prepares to take root

By CNN Newsource
Published February 28, 2025

"Through towering windows, a glimpse inside the Westbrook facility reveals busy workers in the final stretch of preparing for a soon-to-open vertical farm in the heart of one of Maine’s largest cities.

"'We like to call these the Willy Wonka of greens,' said Nona Yehia, CEO and founder of Vertical Harvest.

"Vertical Harvest is a 51,000-square-foot, vertical hydroponic indoor farm in downtown Westbrook.

"'We grow a variety of leafy greens here—everything from your head lettuce to your microgreens and everything in between,' said Chris Eckerson.

"'This isn’t just any farm—it’s a super farm.'

"'The ceiling is 32 feet, the rack itself is 29 feet,' Eckerson said.

"The farm’s vertical design allows it to produce the equivalent of 250 acres of traditional farmland.

"'So, 3 million pounds of produce for the local food economy,' Yehia said."

I feel sorry for small businesses, and staff of office buildings, whose jobs may be affected by higher vacancies, but not so much the corporations that own them. I'm sure they collected and profited from #PPP loans. We should #repurpose empty buildings: #VerticalFarms, community spaces, #housing, etc. Many—not all–office buildings are unsuitable for residential use (glass towers, too much windowless space)? Let architects dream up other ideas!

🤌 Eigentlich sind #VerticalFarms alles andere als #nachhaltig Sie verbrauchen enorm viel Energie, nutzen mineralische Düngemittel und sind dazu auch noch teuer.

😊 Davon wussten Timon Scholz und sein Bruder aber nichts, und machten es einfach besser. Jetzt bauen sie im Kölner Süden eine vertical Farm, die sogar nachhaltiger als der normale Acker sein soll.
