We offer agricultural consulting and facility design and contruction services ranging from planning and permitting to computer modelling, engineering acquisition, construction management, plan execution, troubleshooting, and remote access.
We specialize in designing ultra-low water usage, recirculating hydroponic, aquaponic, and soil based production systems. We also assist existing farms and production facilities in increasing water efficiency and reducing costs.
With years of industry experience in indoor, intensive vertical agriculture right here in the high desert of Northern Nevada, let us help you take your growing operation to the next level. From custom home grows to commercial-scale facilities.
Whether you're building a custom backyard greenhouse system or a high-tech commercial production facility, let us assist you with every step of the process. Our services are yours from Idea to Plate.
Building a state of the art agriculture project is an involved process. We help you acquire engineering, apply for permits, create layout drawings, execute structural/ mechanical/ HVAC/ industrial control schematics, and troubleshoot equipment to get your new facility online.
Whether it's nutrient film technique, deep water culture, media beds, float beds or drip irrigation, we specialize in designing hydroponic, aquaponic, and soil based production systems for the Sierra Nevada high desert environment. We also assist with the installation of primary water filtration systems to ensure crop success.
Let us photograph your finished or under construction facility or home grow to create rich images and content for your business. Specializing in high resolution photo and video, aerial photography, thermal imaging, and 360 virtual tours! Contact us for rates.
We can design both naturally lighted greenhouse systems and artificially lighted, indoor production systems. We can also help integrate alternative energies like solar and wind power to offset operating costs in lighted facilities.
Let us help you assess the projected maintenance/ repair/ capital expense costs you will incur over the life of your facility as you move from the construction into the production phase of your operation.
Dayton Valley Aquaponics is a 30,000 square foot, fully climate-controlled, automated greenhouse facility, which houses a 60,000-gallon recirculating aquaponic system capable of full-term vine crop production using 90% less water than conventional farming methods. The facility produces 100,000 lbs. of tomatoes annually, along with 20,000 lbs. of salad greens, tilapia, fresh herbs, and microgreens
Hungry Mother Organics was a 3,000 square foot greenhouse, fully equipped with recirculating aquaponics systems, intended as a small-scale proof of concept for low water usage plant production. The system produced 250,000 seedlings per season, which were ultimately sold in a retail nursery operation.
Looking to grow entirely indoors? We have years of experience with artificially lighted, indoor vertical farming. We know how to maximize production when every square foot counts. Resource efficiency and sustainability drive our design process.
Interested in building a high-tech food production facility in your own back yard? We specialize in micro-scale cultivation facilities for the home grower. We are now working with Modular Greenhouses in Reno, NV to build greenhouses for home gardeners across northern Nevada.
