Marc Walraven, an innovator in urban farming, founded UrbanRooted Innovations in Fort Worth after leaving mechanical engineering to pursue meaningful work. He developed the 'SkyGrow' vertical aeroponic systems, which utilize nutrient-rich mist and solar energy, to promote sustainable food growth in cities. His mission focuses on making food production accessible to underserved neighborhoods by providing workshops and tools that are easy to construct and use. Walraven emphasizes simplicity in design to empower individuals without reliance on technology, addressing local food deserts and fostering community engagement.
What sets Marc Walraven apart is his belief in keeping things simple. He avoids complicated tech and expensive tools.
My mission was simple: make it easier for people in cities and underserved neighbourhoods to grow their own food.
