 With this acquisition, Taylor Farms is positioned to play a meaningful role in a category experiencing strong momentum and consumer resonance.

The new facility marks the company's fourth greenhouse on the site and cements Little Leaf Farms' McAdoo site as the largest indoor farming operation for leafy greens.

The partnership introduces several greenhouse-grown greens to the produce aisle, including the Nature’s Promise Greenhouse-Grown Sweet Baby Butter, Nature’s Promise Greenhouse-Grown Green and Red Leaf, and Nature’s Promise Greenhouse-Grown Spring Mix.

The merger combines 80 Acres Farms' GroLoop platform with Soli Organic's longstanding retail footprint and agronomic expertise.

The new site – Little Leaf Farms' third overall - will dramatically expand the production footprint.

 Featuring two of the brand's fan-favorite varieties – Baby Crispy Green Leaf and Sweet Baby Butter Leaf – Sweet & Crispy offers a delightful blend of crispy and buttery textures with a touch of sweetness.

The expansion will support Little Leaf Farms' rapid growth, as the brand is now the fastest growing packaged salad brand in the country.

The indoor farming company will triple capacity this year, providing locally-grown leafy greens across the Eastern and Central U.S.

According to the most recent Nielsen data available in the category, the brand has seen a 46% increase in total dollar sales year over year and is now capturing 20% of all packaged lettuce sales in the region, inclusive of field-grown greens.

Controlled environment agriculture (CEA) combines cutting-edge technology with farming best practices to produce fruits, vegetables and herbs year round, in a small size facility with large scale results unmatched by traditional methods.
