In the town of Jackson, Wyoming, this vacant lot will soon be able to supply its residents with fresh herbs, vegetables, and a bounty of tomatoes year-round.
Wyoming, a land-locked state in the United States which sits one mile above sea level, is one of the last places you’d expect such an innovative concept to take off… which is what makes it that much more exciting.
Residents in this mid-western location are no stranger to the burden of cold, bitter winters here. Feet of snow and difficulty growing produce year round leave most locals dependent upon imported fruits and vegetables… as well as the kindness of their neighbor to shovel their walkway.
But thanks to the creators of a new initiative called Vertical Harvest, a bounty of fresh tomatoes, micro-greens, and herbs should soon be available to locals in the area of Jackson, Wyoming.
