“We have amazing customers who are taking this technology and directly addressing the issues of food access, nutrition, healthy eating, and obesity. Everyone should have access to local food.”On this week’s episode of the Eat Green Make Green Podcast, I sit down with Caroline Katsiroubas and Rick Vanzura. Caroline is a founding team member and Rick is the CEO of Freight Farms, the world’s leading manufacturer of container farming technology. We talk about why Freight Farms was started and how it has evolved over the past decade, the capabilities of a Freight Farm, the health and sustainable advantages of Freight Farms, how Covid-19 has shined a light on food systems and supply chains, why Freight Farms are a viable solution to food desserts around the world, and why localizing food can empower communities everywhere.Show NotesFreight Farms Website: https://www.freightfarms.com/Freight Farms Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/freightfarms/Freight Farms YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3DDLe2tbF1vPTW7FgM6QPQ
