Plant Nation

Plant Nation

MISSION

End goal: to build a nation of plants

Vision

Decentralized yet connected system of urban food computers around the world that learn from each other

Ship plant recipes, not plants

Reduce logistics waste from our food system

Closest thing we have to teleportation (with some time lag)

Codify rapidly declining plant wisdom

Documentation of and preservation of farmer intuition

Imperative call to action due to recent rural population shrinkage

Crowdsourcing farm experiments

Bring the farm closer to your table

Enable healthier and more accessible food and specified nutrients

We wanted to work on a problem that focused on sustainability (impending global food and climate crisis) and had long-term healthcare impacts.

We predict that in the future, we won't be depending on external climate to produce food, and vertical and indoor farming will become more mainstream, especially if we become interplanetary species. Here's how to get involved:

STEP 01

Sign up for our latest experiment: a proof of concept that sets precedent for collective farming.

STEP 02

Join the community of urban farmers, and start contributing data to the open source research platform today.

STEP 03

Start building your own personal food computer!

Here's how to start.
