Our Vision

 

With Canada importing 80% of its fresh fruit, and 58% of its vegetables each year, we are assisting in the movement to the increase production of locally grown food. The recent challenges in the supply chain disruptions, unpredictable weather, fire and water shortages, (plus a steadily increasing demand for better and local food), have highlighted the importance of growing sustainable crops indoors year-round.


Our vertical growing technologies are our effort to provide a whole repertoire of complete urban solutions. We are enabling  cities and communities to be self-sustaining with urban farming technologies that allows minimum reliance on imported resources.

Sky Greens Canada is dedicated to transforming the farming industry through the use of innovative green urban solutions. 


It is our mission:  

  • To continue to provide improved agricultural solutions with minimal impact on land, water, and energy resources through our vertical innovation. 
  • To help cities realize food supply security and food safety targets.
  • To promote and enable seamless integration of low carbon footprint agriculture into urban living.
  • Ensure locally grown food is readily available for everyone 

Frequently Asked Questions

Growing vertically has many added benefits. When compared with traditional monolayer farms, the Sky Greens Canada vertical farming system increases the plants per square meter, promotes year-round growing, reduces the carbon footprint, and limits the need for herbicides. By intensifying the land use, our technology can result in 10 times more yield per unit of land area.


Our 9 meter vertical farming tower uses a total of 60 square feet or 8.36 square meters (including walk way). This product can fit 912 - 1824 plants depending on the type of plant and the spacing between plants.


Rotation is powered by a unique patented hydraulic water-driven system which utilizes the momentum of flowing water and gravity to rotate the troughs. Only 40W of electricity - equivalent to one light bulb - is needed to power one 9m vertical farming tower.


Being housed in a protected environment ensures that the system can be relatively maintenance-free and have low manpower dependency. The rotating troughs and intensified plant-to-plot ratio also mean high manpower efficiency.
