Just Vertical

At Just Vertical we build furniture that feeds you. Our indoor gardens allow you to grow your own food, right at home, 365 days per year, while using 95% less water, and no pesticides. This means you can grow your own unique, fresh flavours (like wasabi arugula or black basil!) while helping the planet. We've got over 1000 active gardeners and are fortunate to have strong backers of the company like Arlene Dickinson, Export Development Canada, and F100 firms. We also help you save money on your groceries as every garden purchased comes with everything you need to grow its value back right in the box. We've also taken our backend technology and put it into several different commercial installations where we grow food on a larger scale.
