Indoor Vertical Farming Technology
At Alberta Food Security, we utilize cutting-edge indoor vertical farming technology to revolutionize local agriculture and enhance food security. Our advanced systems are designed to grow a wide variety of crops year-round, regardless of external weather conditions, ensuring a consistent and reliable food supply.
Key Features & Benefits
Grow Anywhere
Unlike other CEA systems (Controlled Environmental Agriculture, like hydroponics or greenhouses), our grow modules can be placed in any vacant real estate space using existing plumbing, electrical, and HVAC infrastructure. This eliminates the need for purpose-built facilities with specialized controls.
Space Efficiency
Our vertical farming setups are modular, maximizing space by growing crops in vertically stacked layers. This uses 90% less space and significantly increases the yield per square foot compared to traditional farming methods.
Controlled Environment
By creating a controlled indoor environment, we can optimize temperature, humidity, light, and nutrient delivery to ensure optimal growth conditions for our plants.
Local production
By bringing food production closer to urban centers, we reduce transportation costs and carbon emissions, providing fresh, locally grown produce to our communities.
Year-round Production
Our technology enables continuous crop production, providing a steady supply of fresh vegetables, fruits, and herbs throughout the year.
Sustainability
Our farming methods significantly reduce water usage, land requirements, and environmental impact, contributing to a more sustainable food system.
Local Economy Support
By promoting local production and supply chains, we support local economies, create jobs, and foster community resilience.
Water Conservation
Our aeroponic systems use up to 90% less water than traditional farming equipment, making our farming practices highly sustainable and environmentally friendly.
Energy Efficiency
Utilizing proprietary energy-efficient LED lighting and Alberta-developed technologies, our vertical farms minimize energy consumption while maximizing plant growth. Each grow module uses only 800 watts - less than most household microwaves!
At Alberta Food Security
Our indoor vertical farming technology represents the future of agriculture—efficient, sustainable, and capable of meeting the food needs of our growing population.
