California Farm and Garden is partnering with businesses in Southern California to create the most unique, versatile, and green wellness amenity a corporate campus can offer: an edible garden. From a multi-use marketing juggernaut to a Zen workspace with WiFi, these urban farms will let you grow above the competition.

Benefits of a Corporate Campus Garden

Elaborate landscapes and cafeterias are a regular part of corporate wellness amenity designs, but today’s generation is demanding more. Increasing health and environmental consciousness is drastically influencing the design world. An edible garden on your corporate campus supplies local, organic, chef-driven produce straight to your cafeterias and those who demand it most. Your farm can also produce organic honey for your cafes and kitchens. 

The garden can be a flexible space used by employees and event coordinators alike. Install a grape-covered pergola retreat for shade, or hide WiFi in redwood raised beds. Roll a white board onto the patio for an outdoor meeting, or conduct a team-building gardening activity. Consider the urban farm atmosphere as an investment in your most valuable assets: your employees. The health and well-being of each employee directly correlates to efficiency and productivity. In fact, Australia’s Deakin University conducted an extensive study that found that people surrounded by nature are healthier overall, and have increased levels of satisfaction with their jobs. Communing with nature lowers levels of stress and anxiety. People score better on tests, heal faster, and get ill less often. Show your support for going green!

An on-site edible garden reduces carbon emissions by both sequestering carbon already in the air and releasing fewer greenhouse gasses than food delivered to your kitchen each week. Urban gardens use 66% less water than grass, can help you with LEED Certification, and are mandatory for certification by the International Living Future Institute.
