Wilder Fields
Wilder is a rapidly growing, venture-backed food and agriculture company that sustainably grows fresh, flavorful, nutrient dense microgreens. We vertically farm microgreens in repurposed buildings without pesticides or fertilizer and use 98% less water and 97% less land than traditional field farming. Our goal is to become the leading provider and grower of fresh microgreens and related CPG products to supermarkets, food service companies, food manufacturers, and consumers. We see ourselves as a first-of-kind microgreens foods company that not only grows and sells fresh microgreens but also productizes them into other microgreens-based products In addition to our fresh microgreens, which are available throughout the Midwest, Wilder has commercialized Daily Elements (www.getdailyelements.com), a microgreens-based powder that sells as direct-to-consumer.
