In an emerging industry, finding dependable data to make business and project management decisions can be challenging. That’s why we use empirical data to calculate estimates of capital and operational costs as well as revenue projections. Blue Planet has been collecting data and models for estimating greenhouse and vertical farming project costs for more than three years. As a client of ours, you gain from Blue Planet’s data-driven insights to plan your project, gather funding, and determine feasibility. Just to be sure that the data will stand once a project is complete, we validate our research with our own greenhouse operations in upstate New York.

Many of our clients have requested programs for ensuring engagement around and proper management of their urban agriculture projects. Blue Planet’s Growing Futures Program is our response to that need. Growing Futures is a sustainability-focused education curriculum for elementary and middle-school aged students that utilizes activity-based learning. The curriculum was developed by a team of sustainability managers who are also educators. Typically, our public and private school clients use the Growing Futures curriculum to widen the impact of their investment in urban agriculture.

Blue Planet also conducts youth and beginners workshops where the basics of hydroponics are taught through hands-on construction of do-it-yourself systems. If you are interested in hosting one of these workshops for team-building at public or private organizations please contact us. Learn more and take part in an upcoming workshop!
