The newest indoor vertical farm from Babylon features breakthrough technologies and cloud-based services to provide unparalleled produce.<\/b><\/h3>\n

May 25, 2022<\/p>\n

(Richmond, VA) Babylon Micro-Farms, Inc.\u00a9, the leading manufacturer of automated indoor vertical farms, today announced the launch of its all-new Micro-Farm, the Galleri\u2122.
The Galleri Micro-Farm features an innovative easy-to-clean tray, a water temperature control system, a full-glass enclosure, and an improved sensor array. Together with the BabylonIQ\u2122 automated growing system and its companion mobile app, it is now easier than ever for customers to experience the art of growing food on-site sustainably.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m excited to see our vision of making farming so simple, that it\u2019s within anyone\u2019s reach, come true,\u201d says Alexander Olesen CEO & Co-Founder \u201cWhether you are a chef looking for year-round greens, a college student looking for healthy options, or a senior-living operator desiring engaging clean produce options, our users love the elegance and ease-of-use only a Babylon Micro-Farm can provide.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Galleri is a sophisticated solution to on-site farming.<\/strong>
The breathtaking Galleri farm delivers powerful tools at the customer’s fingertips via the BabylonIQ system. The system automates the entire process of growing produce through a series of sensors, lights, air channels, nutrients, cameras, and irrigation to provide year-round harvesting opportunities to clients anywhere. The Galleri Micro-farm adds new controls to the existing array of technologies designed to monitor the health and vitality of the plants.<\/p>\n

Greener Cleaner Greens<\/strong>
Customer satisfaction is key to the success of Babylon. According to Babylon, clients want an elegant public-facing farm that requires minimal cleaning time. Customers also want the most sustainable options available. To address both the concerns, Babylon tasked designers and engineers to develop the Galleri using fewer plastics, zero net-cups, and more earth-friendly materials. The anti-spill removable GrowServe\u2122 trays make it simple to harvest comfortably at a table and clean in a dishwasher. Their ingenious trays combine compostable grow mediums and clever material use resulting in a 55% reduction in plastics, 33% reduction in harvest and clean times, and 100% compostable harvest scraps.<\/p>\n

Thinking Inside the Box<\/strong>
Customer support is the secret to Babylon\u2019s success. Every customer has access to automated remote management, a digital support library, and real people for a full-service solution that is proactive instead of reactive. A Galleri user can expect to know ahead of time if their farm is having an issue and have it fixed remotely. The app alerts them, along with step-by-step instructions and videos, when to plant, transplant, clean, and harvest. As part of the subscription service, each customer gets the BabylonBox\u2122 which includes seeds, nutrients, app access, and other supplies sent right before their next planting cycle.<\/p>\n

Feedback<\/strong>
Early reception has been phenomenal. Over 80 farms have been installed to date with hundreds more slated to be installed in the coming months across the US. Aramark, LinkedIn, Compass, NexDine, and Sodexo are just some of the food-service industry partners that have come to rely on Babylon Micro-Farms to deliver delicious and clean menu options to their customers who want an intimate farm-to-table experience<\/p>\n

\u201cWe love our Babylon Micro-Farm, our students love the knowledge that their food was grown just a few feet away,\u201d said Julia Danisewicz, RD Aramark\/VCU. \u201cAs a dietician, it is exciting to see a university like VCU value sustainable, pesticide-free food choices for its students. I didn\u2019t have a green thumb before working with the farm, but it is so easy to use that now I feel like a pro.\u201d<\/p>\n

Our guest is Alexander Olesen, CEO and founder of Babylon Micro-Farms. The Richmond, Va.-based company has developed a hydroponics-based approach to growing produce in enclosed compact systems \u2014 about the size of a large vending machine \u2014 that can be managed remotely. The system produces as much produce in 15 square feet of space as 2,000 square feet of traditional farmland. The company describes its product as a \u201ccloud-based vertical farm\u201d that provides expert cultivation advice and cues about when to harvest. The Babylon Micro-Farms system can help grocers, restaurants, and communities to plant, grow, and harvest produce within yards of where it will be purchased or consumed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":2451,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","content-type":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[13,12,15],"tags":[36,35,21],"class_list":["post-2496","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-babylon-in-the-news","category-perspectives","category-press-releases","tag-hydroponic","tag-podcast","tag-sustainability"],"yoast_head":"\nBabylon Micro-Farms Launches Galleri, a Revolutionary New Vertical Farm - Babylon Micro-Farms<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Babylon Micro-Farms, Inc., the leading manufacturer of automated indoor vertical farms, today announced the launch of its all-new Micro-Farm, the Galleri.The Galleri Micro-Farm features an innovative easy-to-clean tray, a water temperature control system, a full-glass enclosure, and an improved sensor array.
