    Quote On average, food travels 1,500 miles to get from distant fields to the typical dinner table. In colder weather, that number can rise drastically, when stores have to fly produce like blueberries and tomatoes in from tropical locales like Mexico and Peru.

    i don't like the idea of the robotics doing the planting
    takes away from the naturalness even more then doing it inside....lol
    it was pretty cool, but people having mental health issues heal from tending plants as they grow...

    and in doing so feed energy back to the plants...

    couldn't be cheap to build and maintain all of that equipment.

    I'm trying to pull Donald Trump into Bundy Ranch right now, he can be the peacemaker between Democrats and Republicans...

    I'm proposing building a special vertical Ranch on Bundy's 160 acres...



    irrigating deserts are a waste of our most precious resource, clean water, but in a Vertical Farm, conservation stretches a trickle into green crops.

    there is an attempt to divide our country right now before the election, it can be stopped at Bundy Ranch.

    once the vertical farm is built, Bundy can gather his cattle into their new home, and start to raise 30,000 cattle at a time, the payback is only 3 years on this facility. as each one is paid, it funds to start another, bring in the ranchers, as it expands, beef is getting so expensive, people have stopped eating it. Millions of cattle had to be slaughtered in Texas, pipelines were needed for fuel, so they cut off the water...

    this is the answer in Texas, get those big slabs back on families plates...

    now Trump, peace is a worthy enough reason to step forward, lower food costs which lowers the need for government aid...

    ranchers and farmers will love you, conservationist, clean energy... you win and will be King...

    and I'm sure for keeping peace on Indian Lands, ad buying solar energy from them, they might find a location for a Trump Casino on their lands...

    I offer a solution that is a win win for everyone...

    Can anyone hear me?

    I've been playing around with some different ideas for the fish farm, it could be the answer to letting our oceans rebuild the fish populations.

    Michigan is one of the states that would really benefit from growing through the winter...

    imagine biting in to a big ol juicy orange right from the tree...
    I am originally from Detroit.
    My question is: Why go to the time and trouble of building a VERTICAL Farm,
    when land in Detroit is already cheap??


    If their are "deserving poor" out there - and I believe there are - why not allow them to work on farms in return for food. This way, if and when government benefits collapse (as seems likely) they will still be able to feed themselves and their families

    do you believe chemtrails and Fukushima pollute our air? have you ever bit into a fresh picked peach in January in Detroit?

    well that is what I've said since the beginning, it isn't just local grown food currently imported, it is jobs for the local economy.

    they are trying to make private food production illegal, these need to be put in motion before corporations realize they won't be making money on local coops.

    There is another thread called "grounding our planet Earth as healer -documentary" by Zampano. my cell phone does not link very well but I will try. Is it included in the design that animals and plants do not seem to do very well without a direct connection to the earth itself but there are ways around it. Plants in flowerpots don't do as well. However direct links to the ground can be made from below to above the ground and increase productivity and happiness. This video was enlightening to me. Relevent??

    I am stealing this one from Greybeards "Enlightenment and related matters" thread, because I think it deserves its own place here. I watched this documentary this morning and it is a really well done film-not only the information provided on Grounding, but also the style and presentation.

    Sit back and enjoy




    "Grounded" is an independent feature film about what is considered by many authorities to be "The Greatest Health RE-discovery of All Time". The concept was tested on the people of Haines, Alaska , (population 1,700.) Now showing on Youtube for free for a limited time.

    PS.: Special appearence: Edgar Mitchell
    the only industry getting into Vertical farming so far is Marijuana, they have some 20 story buildings, plants look incredible on all the floors.

    I'll check out the video

    Quote PRESS RELEASE: September 14, 2015: PFAS LLC has officially submitted a 40-page Special Report to the Leaders of the United Nations and the European Union.
    – A Sustainable Solution: A Locally Grown Food & Jobs Creation Program (LGF-JCP) – Created to Feed and Create Jobs for Displaced Persons and Asylum Seekers
    – Urban-Focused Food Hyper-Production with Portable Farms® Aquaponics Systems (utility patent application filed 12/23/2014) – Investment range US$250,000 to US$50,000,000 – Local Semi-skilled Labor Jobs Created under each Funded Program
    Quote By selling a large portion of the vegetables and fish to the general public that are grown in Portable Farms® Aquaponics Systems (PFAS), a major portion of the food production system can become self-sustaining in order to pay for ongoing costs of operation, salaries, seeds and seed supplies, fish and fish food, utilities and ancillary costs associated with maintenance. Selling all of the food grown in Portable Farms® Aquaponics Systems (PFAS) offers donors or investors a three to five year ROI depending on the crops grown and the prices they receive.
    Using proprietary Portable Farms® Aquaponics Systems (PFAS) technology and design, each 2.5m2 (25 square feet) of grow space can feed one adult all of their table vegetables, except for root vegetables (potatoes, yams, onions and carrots, etc.) year round and once up to full production about 20% of their protein requirement, forever. These people will also need some other starches/carbohydrates in their diets such as ‘field crops’ as wheat, potatoes, soy, corn or rice. These starchy foods are generally available and less expensive than table vegetables.
    Create immediate jobs and food for displaced persons or asylum seekers
    Permanent full-time jobs and year round food production in three months in greenhouses or warehouse
    Humanitarian efforts that pay both dividends and profits
    Pesticide free food, table vegetables and fish, raised in simple yet revolutionary new technology that replicates nature
    Ideal for semi-skilled women or men operators and trained in less than a week
    Installation can be solar powered
    Total sustainability can be achieved by selling most of the food production to local markets.
    In addition to growing high quality, pesticide-free, locally grown food, this program is specifically designed to create jobs in each farm location. After the initial installation, each additional 1,000m2 (100′ x 100′) installation creates three permanent full-time job and leads to the creation of additional indirect jobs in support services, supplies and ancillary work including areas related to maintenance and utilities, food packaging, fish processing, community relations and marketing, personnel oversight, bookkeeping and security.
