Forward Greens
indoor farming-
harvest to table in 48
hours or less
Forward Greens Launches Indoor Farming in Oregon and Washington New, clever-tech
farming has arrived in the Pacific Northwest! Upstart produce farm Forward Greens -
formerly West Village Farms- recently repurposed a former HP printer factory in Vancouver,
Washington to create an indoor farm.
At Forward Greens, food is grown
up, not out, meaning that growing
trays are stacked high- towering
under the cavernous 28 foot ceiling
of the old printer factory.
The Forward Greens vertical farm has many advantages over traditional produce growers: Full control
over light, land, and water use to provide optimal growing conditions for the plants Year-round
production not impacted by weather No pesticides, herbicide, or fungicides are needed or used The

Everything at Forward Greens
seems to radiate innovation.
Forward Greens, in contrast, has developed a resealable,
tetrahedral shaped film bag that uses 12x less plastic and has
8x less carbon impact.
The bags reinforce the Forward
Greens commitment to
minimizing the environmental
impact of food production.
According to founder Ken Kaneko, "We're excited to
announce our new packaging.
Our primary focus is to serve
the environment.
We believe planting the seeds to create a cleaner
future for generations to come.
We now provide the best packaging to preserve
the tastiest greens while minimizing the impact on
our environment." About Forward Greens
