Follow on Google News | Sustainable Agri-tech Vitæ to Start Crowdfunding for 100% Autonomous Home Smart Gardening SystemThe Vitæ Halo is an innovative indoor herb garden allowing you to grow fresh and organic plants directly from home
By: Vitæ The Vitæ Halo is its first system in a movement to reinvent urban agriculture, and is made from bio-plastics from trusted UK partners. With its crowdfunding, Vitæ will open urban shops with pre-grown herbs usable in home smart gardens. Vitæ was founded by Isaac Conrad McNamara and Arthur Georges, two King's College London alumni passionate about innovation and sustainability. Their mission is to bridge the gap between business and green impact, create ventures that do well by doing good, and encourage a lifestyle that adheres to the United Nations' SDGs. The Vitæ Halo is easy to use: place Smart Seeds in their pods, add water, flip the switch and wait for a variety of different flavourful herbs to grow. Encased in Rockwool, these seeds are pre-germinated for two weeks and are provided with the perfect level of natural nutrients to enhance and extend the life of the herbs. The system comes with a complimentary set of 5 plant pods of your choice, with more than 10 plant varieties to choose from with new ones being added every month. Herbs grown in the Vitæ Halo have a 30% richer taste and 40% higher nutritional value, are 100% natural, and 100% autonomous. "We want to remove the gap between farm and table by providing localised agricultural capability on a domestic, commercial and industrial scale," says Isaac Conrad McNamara, co-founder and COO of Vitæ. "This includes soil removal in agriculture, vertical farming, smaller scale units, education, and bioplastic production." "Vitæ was born from the idea that agriculture shouldn't be destroying the environment, but sadly it is currently the second most polluting industry in the world, and the most water consuming," says Arthur Georges, co-founder and CBO of Vitæ. "We wanted everyone to be able to easily grow organic food at home, even if they lived in crowded city centres or are not a green thumb." Vitæ's crowdfunding campaign will debut with a set target of £40,000. For more information about Vitæ, visit www.vitaegrow.com End
