Holy FML food prices are soaring
What was once a $120 avg trip is now $150

We're selling hydroponic tomatoes at like 40 cents a pound wholesale. Look at what they charge in grocery stores like Hannafords and Shaw's.

Wouldn't exactly call it farming. It's a 20 acre glass greenhouse with computerized watering systems and growlights.

that's cool.

and, anytime you grow anything in quantities large enough to sell to the general public, you're farming (imho)...doesn't matter how you're getting it done.

so, is this like a family business??

This one is a partnership. I own part of the greenhouse operations and 100% of the energy source (fuel cell system).

I'm opening one for cucumbers, one for bib lettuce, and one for strawberries.
