Brooklyn farmers are growing crops inside a shipping container in a parking lot
Square Roots first broke ground by financing and mentoring local entrepreneurs who are growing tasty, nutritious greens in, of all places, a Brooklyn parking lot. Now it’s taking things a step further—right to your New York City office. The new “Farm to Local, by Square Roots” initiative delivers snack-size bags of salad greens to workplaces. It already has subscribers at Vice Media and Kickstarter, said Square Roots CEO and co-founder Tobias Peggs. “Your farmer will literally come to your desk and drop off same-day-harvested greens,” he said.
