    Scaling Hardware Technology Solutions for Climate Adaptation | Founder of Babylon Micro-Farms Inc. | TEDx Speaker | Forbes 30 Under 30

    2023 global indoor farming market: $20.3 billion 2028 global indoor farming market: $32.3 billion (That is a 59.1% increase!) The indoor farming market is not slowing down. Why? → Because it’s a vital component of building & maintaining sustainable communities in the future. Indoor farms are transforming regenerative agriculture practices by rewilding more land & freeing up more space. Allowing all to grow their food: 👉🏻 More sustainably 👉🏻 Closer to where they live 👉🏻 Without having it travel 100+ miles For many communities, small farms will soon evolve into next-generation amenities, revitalizing both their buildings and their communities by: ✅ Providing educational, tourism & job opportunities. ✅ Reshaping mindset of what good food looks like. ✅ Helping to achieve net zero carbon emissions. ✅ And enhancing the value of properties. Paving the way for a new generation of made-to-measure indoor farms. Where harvesting fresh ingredients, on-site, and directly onto your plate will become the norm. We're not just enabling businesses & communities to grow their own food… We're part of the movement that is creating a climate-resilient supply chain that promotes local sourcing & more sustainable future.

    One year ago, The Vice President of the United States visited Babylon Micro-Farms manufacturing facility. She wanted to learn more about what we were doing. So here’s what we showed her: 🖥️ Our cutting-edge technology. ↳ Funded in part by federal research grants. 🧺 Our Micro-Farms. ↳ And how they allow consumers to grow fresh food year-round on-site. 🌎 Our Impact. ↳ How we’re developing an innovative tool for sustainable food production. 🇺🇸 Our commitment to making our products in the USA. Easily one of the coolest days of my career so far, and truly an honor for Babylon to be acknowledged as a leader in sustainable technology development & manufacturing within the USA. So thank you again to Vice President, Kamala Harris, The White House. We look forward to continuing our path to a greener & more sustainable future for all 💚

    I'm curious whether Trump or Vance has stated their position on the vertical farming industry? When Vice President Kamala Harris visited Babylon Micro-Farms last year, she made it clear that she was a big proponent of this emerging industry! I'd like to think supporting vertical farming is a bipartisan issue! Office of the Vice President of the United States The White House

    Babylon set out to create a new standard for what on-site vertical farming should look like: ✅ Educational ✅ Convenient ✅ Engaging ✅ Reliable ✅ Safe So, to achieve this, we had to put certain practices in place to make sure it’s as easy as possible to maintain & run the farm. Today, I can proudly say, Babylon has industry-leading technology with a clear & effective system in place that ensures all consumers can easily understand how to: 👉🏻 Manage 👉🏻 Maintain 👉🏻 And update Their indoor farms hassle-free. And with the help of our expert team, like John Moody, we have been able to create super simple guided paths that anyone can follow.

    When Babylon was born, we wanted to make farming more accessible to all. But there was one group in particular that we really wanted to help… → The younger generation. Here are some stats most people don’t know: 👉🏻 32.1% of children do not eat fruit daily 👉🏻 49.1% of children do not eat vegetables daily 👉🏻 And only 29.3% of children consume 5+ fruits & veg a day When it comes to eating & accessing fresh produce, children should be at the top of the list. Because this food is not only nourishing future generations… But it is showing them the true meaning of fresh produce. And this is exactly why, Babylon Micro-Farms created the STEM Garden. Helping schools to show their pupils the importance of eating & sustaining a healthy and nutritional diet. While also transforming how they access & utilize it! Here’s how ⤵️ 📝 Micro-Farm Based Learning ↳ Micro-Farm initiatives offer cross-curricular education aligned with UN Sustainable Development Goals. Students can learn about hydroponics, adopt healthy eating habits, and explore new career paths. 🔒 Food Safe Cultivation ↳ Our enclosed gardening system maximizes plant growth with minimal effort, fostering a safer and more efficient learning environment. 📖 Hands-on Learning ↳ Students can experience workshops led by dietitians, chefs, or teachers and gain firsthand knowledge about the nutritional value of food, its sources, and delivery technology. 🎒Student-led Activities ↳ Having your own indoor farm allows students to collaborate, promote teamwork, and develop skills, all centered around good food. It's time to prioritize the people who will lead future transformations. And by giving them direct access to experience the cultivating, nurturing, and growth of fresh healthy food. We can reshape the meaning of good food (and its importance) for future generations to come.
