At Bowery, we dream of a world where agriculture gives back to the people and planet more than it takes. But to achieve this, we need more than incremental change.

CRACKED EARTH AND MICRO LEAF SHOT

It’s time to reimagine farming from the ground up

Did you know that by 2050, we’ll need to produce 70% more food to feed an estimated world population of 10 billion? As it currently stands, our agricultural system cannot sustainably feed that many people, most of whom will be living in urban areas. To feed the future, farming needs to aim higher.

Our indoor farms address global challenges by thinking community-first:

Water

Seeds
Pesticides
Food Supply
Food Safety
Food Security
As It Stands
Agriculture uses 70% of the world’s freshwater.
Aiming Higher
Recycle and filter water to reduce consumption.
Fresh Water
As It Stands
Over 40 years, we’ve lost 30% of the world’s arable land due to unsustainable farming practices.
Aiming Higher
Transform unused industrial spaces into community-first farms.
Rice Field
As It Stands
In the field, seeds are largely selected for yield, transportation, and chemical resistance.
Aiming Higher
Select non-GMO seeds that deliver on aroma, texture, and taste.
Seeds in Farmer's Hand
As It Stands
Seventy percent of U.S. produce has traces of pesticides.
Aiming Higher

Pesticide Spraying
As It Stands
The precarious global food supply chain is susceptible to environmental and economic disruption.
Aiming Higher
Create indoor, vertically integrated farming that grows 365 days a year, closer to the point of consumption.
