Providing Fresh Produce

Vertex⁴ is an agricultural infrastructure company redefining how food is grown, distributed, and sustained in California. We use controlled-environment agriculture and water-smart, climate-resilient systems to grow more with less, starting with 150 acres of advanced hydroponic production.

Our mission is simple: to create a new standard for agriculture, one that is productive, profitable, and sustainable. At Vertex⁴, we believe a business can perform well and do good at the same time. By designing farms that protect natural resources and support local communities, we’re showing that innovation and responsibility can go hand in hand.

True success is measured not just in yields or profits, but in the positive impact we make, on people, the planet, and the future of food.

This is the legacy we’re building.

At Vertex⁴, our mission is to build the most efficient, sustainable, and scalable farming systems in North America, designed not only to grow premium produce, but to grow opportunity, dignity, and hope. We are committed to creating stable local jobs, empowering veterans and underserved communities, and ensuring consistent access to nutritious food for all. Every acre we develop is a step toward a healthier planet, stronger communities, and a future where no one is left behind.

We envision a self-sustaining, year-round agricultural model that redefines what farming can be: climate-smart, resource-conscious, and deeply rooted in community. A model that protects California’s natural resources, boosts regional food security, and positions our state as a global leader in agri-tech innovation. At the heart of our vision is a simple belief, that agriculture should serve people, uplift the vulnerable, and create lasting change for generations to come.

California grows more than one-third of the nation’s vegetables, yet the foundation of that abundance is crumbling. Over 1 million acres of farmland have already been fallowed due to extreme water shortages, and the number continues to rise. Traditional soil-based farming, once the backbone of our food system, is no longer dependable at scale.

At the same time, food prices are climbing, supply chains are shrinking, and climate conditions are becoming more unpredictable than ever. These forces are not just disrupting agriculture, they’re threatening the health and food access of millions of Californians.

Agriculture uses up to 80% of California’s water supply. But as droughts grow longer, more frequent, and more intense, our water system is no longer able to sustain traditional farming methods.

• Groundwater levels are plummeting, forcing farms to shut down or reduce output.
• Major agricultural regions are being dewatered, making once-fertile land unusable.
• Climate change is pushing us past the point of conservation, we now need innovation.
   

The agricultural labor force is aging and shrinking. Meanwhile, long-distance trucking, which once connected rural farms to urban markets, is now unsustainable, due to fuel costs, emissions regulations, and logistical strain.

• Local retailers struggle to access reliable, fresh, year-round produce. 
• Consumers are paying more while getting less.
• The gap between where food is grown and where it’s needed has never been wider

Vertex⁴ harnesses cutting-edge climate-controlled greenhouses and advanced hydroponic systems to grow premium produce 365 days a year, using up to 90% less water and no soil whatsoever. Our closed-loop approach maximizes resource efficiency while ensuring consistent, high-quality yields regardless of external climate conditions.
