Vertical farming has the potential to revolutionize food production, but it's important to ensure it is accessible to everyone in a community.

We tend to think of plants growing outside with sunlight and soil, but other ways of getting light and nutrients are just as viable for plant growth. That’s where hydroponics growing comes in because hydroponics is growing plants in nutrient-rich water, without soil.
