Why does Roots Verde exist?

Roots Verde LLC, a small farm in Las Vegas, NV, was started by me - Josh, and my wife, Tiffany. I'll share more about who we are in another post, but let's answer the question: Why does Roots Verde exist?

Why: You've probably heard it before, but our food system is broken. Your food is grown by people you don't know, sold by companies only concerned with their stock prices, trucked hundreds of miles, sometimes over oceans, before it finally hits your dinner table. Life is tough enough: who has time to worry about the nutrient density of their salad? We've got you!

How: We grow in commercial-grade aeroponic towers with the highest quality nutrients on the market. Our entire operation is powered by our own solar arrays, we capture rainwater to supplement our supply, and we grow edible flowers to support pollinators. We use no pesticides, clean our tools with organic soap, and use 90% less water than traditional farming methods. Sustainability is in our DNA.

When: Roots Verde was officially established in June 2024, but we've been growing food in one form or another for the last several decades, and focused on the development of this farm for nearly two years.

Where: The desert is home! Our farm is located near Rainbow and Warm Springs, which means your food is still fresh and thriving long after your grocery store haul has already hit the trash bin. We are farm to your table.

Farm tours will be available monthly starting in 2025, with a livestream available on YouTube coming in Fall of 2024. Thanks for reading!
