The Freight Farms LGM shipping container farm could be your turn-key solution to providing your community with the hyperlocal fresh produce year-round.
Operational Requirements
Measurements: 40' (l) x 8' (w) x 9.5' (h)
Weight: 16,500lbs (± 2,000lbs)
# of Towers: 256
Main Tank: 137 gallons
Electrical: 60 amp, 120/240-volt single-phase connection with plug-in configuration for easy setup (120/180 volt is also acceptable). Most farmers use a 4 prong straight blade plug, similar to what you need for an RV or a dryer. If you choose to hardwire, we recommend hiring a licensed electrician for installation at the time of delivery.
Water: Access to water is all you need. The LGM is capable of automatic tank-level management. A designated water source is suggested, but it can be achieved with a common garden hose feed as well.
