The Aerobarn: A Private Tour for x5 guests of a state-of-the-art Vertical Farm in Bracknell Berkshire with Plant Scientist - Dr Deepa Haridas
Donated by: Innovation Agritech
Innovation Agritech’s vertical farm, The Aerobarn, located near Windsor in Berkshire, is a world class aeroponic indoor growing facility which raises nutritional plants for eating without the use of soil, sunlight or pesticides.
Acclaimed plant scientist Dr Deepa Haridas will explain, during a tour of the organisation’s futuristic vertical farming headquarters and its systems, how they use their ground-breaking, patented technology to revolutionise agriculture as we know it, to achieve exceptional crop yields, both locally and sustainably.
All whilst completely eliminating the seasonal constraints of traditional farming and safeguarding the natural environment for the next generation, helping us feed ourselves without damaging the planet.
The tour will enable you to spend time in the vertical farm, marveling at the range of lights used, seeing how the plants are strengthened with currents of air and then sent to sleep to further flourish. You can even try some of the plants growing in their bespoke recycled frames.

- Tour for x5 guests to be organised on a mutually agreed date, with x4 weeks’ prior notice
- Experience to be redeemed by 31 May 2025 and not open to anyone under 10 years of age
