Farms Wide Open – Innovative and Climate Resilient Farming in The Bahamas
The project aims to provide a special combination of innovation and expertise to simultaneously solve and address the fragility and inequalities of the local food system and transform it into more sustainable, inclusive, and resilient to climate change. The project will produce a series of world-class, robotics-enabled, climate resilient & solar powered hydroponic container farms (stationed in poor and vulnerable communities) that will produce fresh fruits, vegetables, and organic leafy greens. This technology has been tried, tested, and proven under the umbrella of Eeden Farms and has produced thousands of pounds of fresh leafy greens which is currently being sold to the wider population.
