Two of our co-founders, Nona Yehia and Caroline Croft Estay, (plus a few of our wonderful employees) were featured on the Today Show on Monday, March 8, 2021 in honor of International Women’s Day. View the clip here.
🌱 From the ground up, we`re growing something different — and our friend Maile is all in. 💚 @mailebuker
Join Maile in supporting Sponsor a Tray, a new program from Vertical Harvest that invites you to power our farm’s impact — one tray at a time.
Each tray is a tiny engine of good: growing fresh food, creating inclusive jobs, and feeding our Maine neighbors. For $250, you can sponsor one too — and even give it a name (Maile’s is “Maile’s Green Toboggan").
This is what a homegrown food system looks like: sustainable, local, and rooted in community. Let’s keep it growing — together.

🎥 Big day in Maine! Arik Griffin, Chief of Farm Systems for Vertical Harvest, walks us through the very first seeds being planted at our new farm—and the smart automation making it all happen. 🌱🤖
From loading trays to perfectly spaced planting, this is where innovation meets impact.
We’re officially growing in Maine—and just getting started. 💚

🍎 Big love to the Westbrook Lunch Program for serving up free lunches for kids all summer long! 🙌
Vertical Harvest’s own Lindsay stopped by to volunteer (and she’ll be there every Wednesday, too!)—and got to team up with fellow community champ, Sylvia. 💚
Catch the crew every weekday from 12–1 PM at Westbrook Common, now through August 15. Good food, good vibes, and great neighbors. 🥪✨ @downtownwestbrook @fullplatesfullpotential

🎇 Hope everyone’s having a joyful 4th of July!
We kicked things off early with a very Vertical Harvest BBQ—complete with fresh greens, community vibes, nonstop laughter… and yes, an extremely cute puppy. 🐶💚🥗
From sunny picnic tables to trays full of flavor, our team knows how to throw down in style (and with salad tongs). Much love to our VH fam—we’re grateful for you every day.
Just a reminder: no BBQ is complete without a fresh, crispy side salad. 🥬😉

Yes, we’ve got the greens: Kale Blend, Mustard Kohlrabi Mix, Red Vein + French Sorrel, and maybe even a lil Cilantro surprise if it grew up overnight. 💚
Come say hi and stock up—we’d love to see you! 🌱✨

🦪 Weekend Recap: From Greens to Oysters at Oyster Fest Maine!
We had a shuckin’ good time at The Maine Oyster Festival this weekend in Freeport! Even in the rain. 💚 So many great oyster companies, local chefs and makers, ocean enthusiasts, musicians, and more!! Huge thanks to @noreaster_oyster_co for highlighting some of our microgreens. They had a long line throughout the entire event!!
Together, we celebrated sustainable food systems — from the sea to the city — and had some great convos about what it means to grow local, year-round.
Overheard at the Oyster Fest...
*Westbrook resident coming up to the booth and asking if we are FINALLY ready to open and excitedly being able to share that YES, we are SO close!!
*Chatting with a new home microgreen grower and checking out great photos of her progress.
*Asking kids about their favorite vegetables and when they mentioned liking clovers chiming in that if they like that tart flavor our red sorrel will do the trick!
*"Can`t wait to see you on the shelves!"

🌈 Pride Was in Full Bloom! 🌈
Vertical Harvest had an incredible time celebrating Pride Month at the Portland, Maine Pride Parade this past weekend! We were honored to march alongside our amazing friends from @doublehouseartscollective
and @thegoodcrust , united in our shared commitment to inclusion, resilience, and community.
From the creative art sign making session to the colorful march through the streets to the joyful gathering at Deering Oaks Park, the day was filled with love, laughter, and powerful reminders of why visibility and equity matter. Pride isn’t just a moment — it’s a movement we’re proud to grow with, every day. Our community of friends in Maine is growing!!!
Also, the massive pizza art piece by The Good Crust was the hit of the parade!! Well done!!
[Image Descriptions: Images one through three are group shots before and during the parade. Images four through seven are each of two people arm in arm smiling with the Wicked Inclusive tshirts on. Image eight is of Alicia holding the large pizza and Natasha holding a Rainbowlicious sign. Image nine and ten are group shots. And image eleven is of Peter holding his Together Together sign.]
💜 A huge thank you to everyone who showed up, showed out, and helped spread the message that all people deserve to be seen, celebrated, and supported.
