Falcon Structures Assists Indoor Farming Leader Square Roots with New Farm

Austin TX, March 11, 2022 – Falcon Structures, a Central Texas based modular manufacturer, provided modified shipping containers for Square Roots' newly operational farm in Kenosha, Wisconsin. Square Roots is a technology leader in indoor farming with a mission to responsibly bring its locally grown food to people in cities around the world, all year round.

To create its fourth and largest farm to date, Square Roots utilized refurbished upcycled shipping containers that are stacked vertically to reduce the company's impact on the land. Inside each of the 20 modified shipping containers Square Roots houses its proprietary smart-farm technology platform and software-controlled hydroponic growing systems to produce more food with fewer resources. This technology allows Square Roots to grow produce year-round while using 95% less water than conventional field farming.

"It was a pleasure to work with Square Roots to create such a positively impactful project. This is just one example of how modified containers have the potential to build a better world." - Stephen Shang, CEO and Co-Founder of Falcon Structures

The Square Roots team designed the farm zones and technology for the containers and trusted Falcon Structures to modify the shipping containers according to precise specifications that best suited Square Roots' requirements for the farm. After the modifications, the containers were shipped to Square Roots' farm site in Kenosha, Wisconsin, where the indoor farm's deployment team quickly and easily constructed the farm. Now, the Kenosha farm has the capacity to produce more than 2.4 million packages of herbs and leafy greens annually, free of pesticides and GMO's, with an extended shelf life of at least 14 days.
