Universities & Schools
Grow Food. Teach Food. Lead the Future.
At Produce Now, we believe universities shouldn’t just talk about sustainability — they should live it.
Our Grow Pods give schools the tools to grow their own food supply, educate the next generation, and lead the way in real-world innovation — all at the same time.
This isn’t just about farming.
It’s about reshaping campuses into living ecosystems where food, education, health, and leadership grow together.
Turn Your Campus Into a Living Food System
With Produce Now Grow Pods, universities and schools can grow fresh, clean, chemical-free produce right on their campuses — creating a self-sustaining food network that feeds dining halls, athletic departments, cafes, health centers, and even retail stores.
Imagine a campus where:
Dining services use fresh leafy greens, tomatoes, strawberries, and herbs — all grown steps from the kitchen.
Salad bars feature "Campus Grown" produce harvested that morning.
Athletes refuel with chemical-free, performance-optimized foods from the university’s own farm pods.
Campus stores sell fresh produce under a university brand — keeping food dollars inside the institution.
Student-run businesses, cafes, and farm-to-table programs flourish around a homegrown food supply.
Emergency preparedness plans include in-house food production to protect against supply chain disruptions.
With Grow Pods, universities don’t just buy food — they own their food system.
They feed their people. They power their programs. They lead by example.
A Living Classroom for the Next Generation
Beyond the food, Produce Now creates a dynamic educational platform that touches multiple departments and disciplines.
Grow Pods become hands-on classrooms where students study, innovate, and lead across:
Agriculture and Environmental Science
Teach hydroponic growing, sustainable farming, climate-resilient food systems, and resource management.
Nutrition and Health Sciences
Connect students directly to the nutritional value of fresh food and the science behind clean eating.
Business, Entrepreneurship, and Hospitality
Create real-world business models, CSA programs, marketing campaigns, and sustainable food startups.
Engineering and Technology
Research environmental controls, water usage efficiency, renewable energy applications, and farming tech innovation.
Sustainability and Urban Development
Strengthen green campus initiatives, carbon reduction efforts, and long-term resilience plans with food independence at the core.
Students don’t just read about the future of food.
They build it, run it, taste it, and lead it — right from their own campus.
