Potager's Thai Basil

In Potager‘s Vertical Farm in Berlin Biesdorf, the herbs are grown according to the principles of vertical farming. 

We are a passionate and international team, driven by the necessity to protect and preserve our Earth's limited resources. In our Berlin production facility, we grow plants year-round to shorten supply chains, reduce food waste, and lower CO2 emissions. Our vertical farm is a fully automated and scalable vertical cultivation system. Light, water, and temperature can be individually adjusted for each plant species, ensuring they grow in reliable quantities and intervals.

Advantages of vertical farming:

-          Zero pesticides.

-          100% season-independent production cycle.

-          Less waste due to shorter supply chains.

-          Fewer food miles due to local cultivation and short transport routes.

-          Up to 50% less fertilizer used than in greenhouses and open-field cultivation.

-          Up to 95% less land consumption compared to greenhouses.
