The class will provide the knowledge base to implement vertical agriculture ranging from a hobbyist / education to professional grower and for profit opportunity.

Learn about the Green Living Technologies International Food Factories and the Patented Edible Wall Technology. GLTi is a pioneer in “zero miles” from farm to table with indoor and outdoor edible walls for growing fresh fruits and vegetables in urban environments, indoors and utilizing parking lots without having to build raised beds or breaking ground, “All we need is water”. The perfected GLTi Mobile Edible Walls has advance urban food production and edible wall technology to new levels.

The Patented Mobile Edible Walls are mounted on wheels so it can be relocated to maximize the exposure to the sun throughout the year and configured to fit odd-shaped areas. This also allows for use in parking areas, brownfield sites and temporary farming solutions. Utilize abandon parking areas and move your farm as needed!

Additionally, the frame can be situated & moved indoors during the winter months to provide a year round growing experience complete with energy saving LED Grow Lights that support both leafy greens and flowering produce specifically designed for the commercial and educational indoor applications allowing food production throughout the year.
