Farm.One (website), the hydroponic indoor vertical farming business renowned for its distinctive and tasty premium salad greens, specialty herbs, edible flowers, and microgreens, has reopened its Neighborhood Farm in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn, after securing long-term expansion finance from DK-Bell Holding Company. The farm will have a 1,500-square-foot showroom and private event area called The Pavilion that can accommodate up to 70 people and is surrounded by plants. Farm.One has won praise from locals and celebrity chefs for its low-volume, high-touch “kitchen table” strategy.

DK-Bell recognized Farm.One as a unique urban farm in late 2022 swiftly provided long-term funding and set the organization on the road to resurrection. The CEO of DK-Bell claims that this company “farms the highest quality greens, hands down, using innovative sustainable practices, and has an amazing connection with customers, whether it be a Michelin-rated chef at a high-end restaurant or a local member at their kitchen table.”

According to Farm.One CEO Rob Laing, “Closing the farm in February 2022 was a heartbreaking and perplexing time for us all.” But now that we’re back in business, we’re happy to be able to offer the freshest, tastiest greens and herbs to our neighborhood.

The farm has revived and now produces many herbs, edible flowers, and salad greens for residents and chefs throughout Farm.One’s Farm Membership direct-to-consumer model, complementary items are offered. In February, the first weekly harvests of greens and salad ingredients were finished and accessible to neighborhood residents. Visitors to the farm will have the chance to explore and learn more about local vertical farming and how its products can easily integrate into daily life when it opens to the public in April and offers sampling tours, workshops, and events.

The Brooklyn-based Farm.One Neighborhood Farm is a shining illustration of the business’s dedication to cutting-edge, sustainable methods. The farm uses hydroponic technology to grow food without using soil, which conserves water and cuts down on waste. Additionally, the farm’s vertical architecture makes the most of the available area and allows for the compact growth of several product kinds.

Farm.One is in a solid position to continue expanding and growing with the help of DK-Bell Holding Company, giving even more people access to superior, environmentally friendly, and delicious products. In addition, the Neighborhood Farm in Brooklyn’s Prospect Heights has reopened, demonstrating the business’ tenacity and commitment to its patrons and the neighborhood.
