Vertical Farm Company Expanding Production in Dallas Suburb

Eden Green Tech, a vertical farm company based in Cleburne, Texas has opened its new hybrid farm with the second phase on its way. Phase one of the North Texas farm expansion, which is now open, was completed about a year ago. The latest vertical greenhouse that Eden Green Tech is opening will be producing 1.8 million pounds of produce per year. This is done in 62,000 square feet, making it a high-yield facility for controlled environment agriculture (CEA).

Phase two, which is now under construction, will triple the total production to over five million pounds of produce a year. The $31 million expansion will encompass 125,000 sq ft (11613m2) and employ an additional 50 employees.

Green Tech’s Eddy Badrina says the company has some proprietary secrets, “We’ve developed a unique mobile lighting solution to provide adequate and quality light to our grow system, which is optimizing yield, morphology, and efficiency,”.
