Our founders, food industry veterans Mike and Tisha, knew that food wasn’t what it used to be, so they wanted to make it better – by creating a new kind of farm. A farm that grows up to 300 times more food than an ordinary farm on a smaller footprint, without a drop of pesticides. Farms powered with 100% renewable energy, growing with 95% less water and delivering food within 48 hours for longer freshness for our customers and less food waste.

80 Acres Farms is a vertical farming leader, operating commercial farms in Ohio, Kentucky, and soon-to-be Georgia in addition to research and development farms in Arkansas and The Hague, Netherlands. All farms utilize state‑of‑the‑art technology and analytics developed by the Company’s subsidiary, Infinite Acres.
