Comment on World’s largest vertical strawberry farm opens in Jersey Cityparent

With indoor farming, you save on transportation and refrigeration, which is also energy intensive. Gotham Greens is doing something similar with salad mix, and they're supposedly profitable. That said, lettuce is a lot less calorie dense than strawberries, so I'd imagine that indoor strawberries will always be a luxury product.

Gotham greens has rooftop greenhouse gardens(most over Whole Foods stores)..not vertical farms CEA. They are indoor/greenhouse growers.

Right, but you pay for light and environmental control.
