About
Beanstalk started as a solution to solve a local restaurant’s need for consistent, high-quality salad. Several years later, it has turned into a business intent on making pesticide-free, local produce available anywhere in the world.
Michael, Jack, and the Beanstalk team are working to use engineering and science to create systems that solve our modern problems and cultivate natural, tasty produce.
