In this episode of Food's Footprint, Journalist Brandy Yanchyk meets Mike and Becky Newhook, founders of Vertical Roots Canada in Edmonton, Alberta. Through their innovative indoor hydroponic farms, they’re bringing fresh, chemical-free greens to local communities—harvested and delivered the same day for ultimate freshness and nutrition.
Mike and Becky are on a mission to make year-round, local food production possible for everyone, empowering communities to grow their own food sustainably. Brandy chats with them about their vision for the future of food and how they’re changing the way we think about farming.
