Vertical farming produce comes from crops grown in stacked layers within controlled environments. These systems often use hydroponics or aeroponics instead of traditional soil, along with artificial lighting to optimize growth conditions. This allows for year-round production regardless of external weather.
The approach is especially relevant in urban areas where space is limited. By maximizing output per square foot, vertical farming supports local food production and reduces transportation needs. Crops like leafy greens, herbs, and small vegetables are commonly grown using this method.
