Landmark Timeline
Check out this video which has more information about the creation of the Good Table Foundation, the background of its partners and its early progress towards getting started.
Co-founder Greg Nitzkowski and consulting partner Charlotte Kaufman spend two days training in Boston at Freight Farms’ headquarters.
Exciting news….shortly after we got back to Castine from our training sessions at Freight Farms, our containerized farm arrived and was installed at the future site of Good Table Foundation’s operations. Check out this video of the installation process.
With the transformers now installed and the power meters activated, the contractors are pushing ahead with connecting the farm to the power grid. They’re also hooking the farm up to the site’s new water well.
The Good Table Foundation had planned to do the first test grow in December and January and then begin producing deliveries by the end of their first quarter. They won’t make that time because of power delays and some weather-related operating concerns
The Good Table Foundation's Cofounder Greg Nitzkowski shares how the farm works and why they decided to use the Freight Farms product.
Back at the Good Table Foundation farm, where Cofounder Greg Nitzkowski explains the reason for red and blue LED light arrays and starting their test grow on a 27-degree snowy spring day!
For our first test grow, we seeded 680 plants back in mid-April. Now, after three weeks in the nursery, our seeds have developed into seedlings. We have 660 seedlings ready to be transplanted into the cultivation area of our farm, where, over the next month, they will mature into harvestable plants.
