It’s in our roots.
At our core, we’re farmers and foodies. We wanted a better way to create delicious and clean greens - without using acres of land, thousands of gallons of water, and nasty pesticides. So we built our first Hammock Greens farm inside of a shipping container.
After a few years of blood, sweat, and greens, Hammock Greens has expanded into 11 farms - and we’re just getting started. We are on a mission to become South Florida’s top provider of superior, hyper-local greens.
