Corner Stalk Farm grows hydroponic greens including 20 varieties of heirloom lettuces, kale, basil, chard, arugula, spicy mustard greens, and a variety of herbs, all inside 4 recycled shipping containers located in East Boston, MA. Harvesting year-round between 4,000 and 6,000 plants a week and using less than 10 gallons of water per container the Farm is efficient, environmentally friendly, and grows delicious heirloom greens.


How it works

Controlled Environment

Corner Stalk Farm specializes in Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA). Temperature control, LED lighting, and automatic water flow within insulated shipping containers creates an ideal year-round environment that leafy greens need. Blizzard or heat wave, we're still harvesting.


Vertical & Hydroponic

Hydroponics is a soil-less growing method that allows the cultivation of plants using recirculated water with optimum nutrient inputs. Corner Stalk Farm has no runoff and use no pesticides or harmful chemicals. To top it off, we leverage vertical growing technology to grow twenty plants per square foot of farm space per month.


Heirloom Lettuces

Corner Stalk Farm grows more than twenty varieties of lettuces chosen for color, texture, and taste. Freshly harvested, our locally grown lettuces are packaged as a mix for Boston area consumers. Additionally, Corner Stalk Farm grows a variety of herbs and other leafy greens including: basil, arugula, chard, kale, mint, and mustard greens. Requests welcome.
