Farmbox Greens

Farmbox Greens is an urban, hydroponic, vertical farm specializing in microgreens and culinary herbs.

At Farmbox Greens we approach agriculture in an innovative way. Our farm is vertical meaning it is grown in stacked square feet, not acres. Because we believe in fresh, flavorful produce we have created a sustainable farm where the harvest cycle is days not months. Whether you buy our greens in a restaurant or from a store or farmer’s market, chances are your Farmbox Greens were harvested only hou

rs before arriving on your plate. We love getting fan photos, recipes, comments and questions, so don’t hesitate to reach out. Thanks for visiting our page.

FARM UPDATE: We’re working to install new grow system LEDs 💡🌱💡

The warranty of our original lights has expired which means our yields have slowly decreased over time.

We want to grow as much as we can so we’re planning to replace them this year. To trial the process & work out the kinks, we installed a couple of rows of the new LEDs last week on level 2 (see slide 1).

As you can see, we’ve got a new spectrum of light - it’s called PKB! PKB has red, blue & green light (see slide 2 🌈). Our original LEDs (PPB) have red & blue light only.

If you’re interested in the technical side, please see our “Grow Room” highlight for the PPB vs. PKB spectra ratio.

The bottom line is that our new LEDs support biomass in plants and it’s much more eye friendly spectrum. We think it’s a win-win! 🏅
