FOCUS: Net Zero Carbon and Waste, Sustainable Infrastructure

OVERVIEW: Miravel targets the problem of “fresh” produce, which on average in the U.S. is grown over 1,000 miles away using lots of land, water, and chemicals. The large-scale agriculture system exists all over the world and is one of the leading industries contributing to climate change. But it’s not just hurting our environment, it’s also hurting people. Pesticides are a major health risk and while food is sitting on a truck or on a shelf, it’s losing nutritional value, not to mention its taste and aroma. There’s truly nothing better than growing food locally. While people and businesses are becoming increasingly focused on health and sustainability, and trying to incorporate nature into their everyday environments, they keep running into the same problems–it takes up too much space, is too messy, and takes too much time. Thus, Miravel developed the Wall Garden to make it easy to grow your own food and connect with the beautiful life around you. Their ultimate purpose is to help people and businesses be more healthy, happy, and sustainable.
