Agria

3 Ridge Technologies is revolutionizing indoor farming by enabling growers to produce high quality, affordable, chemical-free, USDA Certified Organic produce. Branded as Agria™, from the Latin term for "wild, of plants", the system is an easy-to-grow, close-to-nature, growing system which produces high-quality, affordable, USDA Organic crops. It produces crops with incredible taste and shelf life without using any chemical fertilizers, pesticides, or nutrients. It is environmentally friendly, sustainable, and enjoys full circularity. Our mission is to provide more affordable USDA Organic certified crops with renewable and sustainable farming practices. We provide growers a more profitable way to grow in any indoor environment. By growing in greenhouses, containers, warehouses and more, this system enables hyper-local growing to deliver high quality taste farm to table. Additionally, by supporting growing in urban areas we aim to convert food-deserts to food-oases and build resilience within communities. It all started when William Layton shattered the state record with a 1,138lb pumpkin which led him to develop. Today we are a diverse team headquartered in Lynchburg, VA where we continue to improve on our system.
