How indoor vertical farming can grow a more secure and sustainable food future.

Our global population is growing and we are increasingly living in cities. Food supply chains are getting longer and more complicated. Most farmable lands are being depleted. We need to find smarter ways to farm – essentially, grow more produce with less resources.

Indoor vertical farming can help address this pressing food security challenge. Agricultural technology innovator Paul Millett shares his vision for fresh, nutritious, herbicide and pesticide-free produce and how his business is bringing this food future to life.
