Eating healthy is made much easier with access to fresh options at home, and Willo offers a monthly subscription service that lets people receive a constant supply of crops from its vertical farm. Those who join can build their own farm by subscribing to their very own "plot," which actually takes the form of a tower under an LED light in a San Jose warehouse. Thanks to indoor growing, Willo offers a controlled environment for its food to flourish—without pesticides and with minimal water.
The tech-filled indoor farm is optimized to give plants just what they need at any given time, as there are LED lights that can be robotically moved as needed to offer more or less light. With Willo, subscribers will enjoy salad greens, herbs and soon, a connection to a web portal that shows time-lapse images of their plot.
