Sustainable Farming

We are committed to bringing local produce to cities using sustainable farming practices to minimize our environmental impact. Our hydroponic growing systems efficiently recirculate water, growing produce with 95% less water than conventional field farms. We repurpose existing urban infrastructure, like empty parking lots, and use upcycled shipping containers to construct our farms, reducing our impact on the land. We grow more food using fewer resources. And because our produce arrives in local stores within hours of harvest, we minimize the impact on the environment both in our supply chain and in the surrounding area.

Vegetable oils have been linked to weight gain, diabetes, cancer, cognitive decline, heart disease, autoimmune disease, and more. They increase risk of death by 62% — more than heavy drinking or moderate smoking — and are a leading cause of deforestation and climate change. Zero Acre Farms is replacing the most problematic part of our food system with oils and fats that don't make us sick or destroy the planet. And we’re doing it by introducing a new category of healthy oils and fats, made by fermentation, not deforestation.
