Greenhouse profit without all the greenhouse expense!
Indoor Farm Foundation reduces upfront cost and risk.
Greenhouses deliver higher revenue/acre than open field when operated by trained farmers. Depending on the crop, margins can approach 40%!
The problem is that the initial investment for a state-of-the-art five-acre greenhouse can cost up to $5 million dollars, which puts this farming innovation out of reach to many.
We dramatically reduce that investment via grants and loans.

Grants
Grants encourage businesses to provide new services by lowering cost. Some are federal and state (USDA, Rural Development, NRCS, etc.) while others come from private foundations. The problem is they’re extremely hard to apply for. Some proposals can exceed 200 pages, and applicants must take part in interview sessions! Our team of experienced farm-related grant writers can help execute these for you.

Loans
Many are available, and your current bank can help identify the best option. We’ve also partnered with many rural banks to offer excellent products to complete your funding package. The US Treasury also offers guaranteed loans to further reduce risk. Our team of loan specialists can assist in crafting the right loan program for you.
