FAQ

How much space do underground farming systems take?

The first generation of systems uses 1m diameter shafts and each one requires approximately 100 sq. of total surface space.

What can underground farming systems grow?

Our goal is to produce any type of crop in the long term, but for our pilot, our effort is focused on greens and plans on diversifying quickly towards fruits.

How much do underground farming systems cost?

$2,000 to $3,000 CAD per linear foot of Forges depending on the level of automation and the region's construction labour costs. So each forge of 100ft costs between $200,000 and $300,000 CAD.

Is produce grown without sunlight healthy?

Yes, it's safe to eat food that's been grown from artificial lighting sources. Current commercial greenhouses already use it to compensate when sunlight is too low.

Why farming underground?

Less space and energy are needed than current vertical farming systems.

How do underground farming systems work?

Plants are germinated on the surface, placed in growing modules, and moved into the underground systems to undergo growth stages. Once ready the modules are lifted out of the underground system and the plants harvested.
