Canuck Eden Holding LTD.
Farm Project Description
I have plan to use Container Farms to grow my leafy greens and vegetables to feed my local community fresh produce and at the same time saving the Earth by using 99% less water than traditional agricultural and pesticide free growing.
My containers maintain their temperature and humidity levels regardless of climate conditions as they are insulated from-50 to +50 degrees ,the only thing that I need is electricity and water access.
