GetBlok Farms primarily serves the local community through subscriptions, employing the widely acclaimed Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) model. Local residents, restaurants, and chefs within a 10-mile radius of our farm have the opportunity to savor the exquisite flavors of our fresh, locally-grown produce. By focusing on the local community, we prioritize their needs and contribute to a stronger, more resilient food system.
Operating in a remarkably sustainable manner, GetBlok Farms utilizes advanced hydroponic techniques consuming a staggering 97% less water than traditional farming methods.
Through the state-of-the-art CEA system, we are able to grow over 2.5 acres of high-quality, nutritious produce in less than 320 square feet of space. This extraordinary feat of efficiency enables us to make significant strides towards a more sustainable future.
"At GetBlok Farms, our mission is simple: move farms, not food," says Vinnie Lima, Managing Member at GetBlok Farms. "By bringing agriculture closer to the consumers, we dramatically reduce the time and distance traveled between 'farm to fork.' This results in an astounding reduction of over 1500 miles in transportation, leading to a substantial decrease in CO2 emissions and waste. Moreover, our produce reaches consumers with unrivaled freshness, as it is harvested just moments before delivery, while energizing the local community."
Education is a key aspect of GetBlok Farms' mission. We offer a comprehensive STEM-rich educational curriculum, providing local educators with access to our technology platform and farm operations. From immersive tours to half and full-day educational activities, we aim to inspire the next generation and empower them with the knowledge and skills necessary to thrive in the field of Agricultural Technology.
