The company, which is headquartered in Richmond, Virginia, has grown significantly, earning recognition on the Inc. 5000 list and expanding its reach across 40 states and multiple countries. Beyond its flagship systems, the company continues to innovate by developing more accessible, cost-effective models to bring sustainable agricultural education and food access to broader commercial and educational markets.
