The Flex Micro™ is the compact, next-generation addition to the Fork Farms family—an indoor hydroponic system engineered to make premium microgreens, culinary herbs, and seedlings easy, efficient, and affordable in virtually any space. Standing 6 ft high with a 2 ft × 4 ft footprint, the Flex Micro delivers outsized production: up to 96 oz of microgreens weekly (12 trays), up to 144 full-size culinary herbs/edible flowers, or up to 2,400 seedlings. It operates on a single standard outlet at 300W, with typical monthly inputs of ~162 kWh power, ~10 gallons of water, and ~8 hours of labor—all while using zero pesticides/herbicides and eliminating food miles by growing on-site.
Built for reliability and speed, the Flex Micro pairs optimized LED lighting (independent on/off per level, IP68 water-resistant fittings, light shield to minimize algae) with a simplified, enclosed irrigation system (one pump and main line, proprietary FLEX Flood & Drain fitting, quick hose connect to fully drain, naturally circulating tank). A powder-coated steel frame, food-safe white aesthetic, formed-fit reservoirs and trays, and locking casters create a clean, mobile, professional setup that fits kitchens, classrooms, cafeterias, and R&D benches. Components meet ETL/UL standards where applicable.
The Flex Micro can run stand-alone or plug into larger Fork Farms workflows—pair with Acre Connect for seamless germination, feed seedlings into Flex Farm/Flex Acre systems, or use it as a dedicated microgreens & garnish station for high-end culinary programs. Operators also gain access to Farmative™—a digital hub with a grower community, teaching tools, growing resources, and seamless supplies shopping—so teams launch faster and scale confidently. Compared with traditional agriculture, the Flex Micro enables zero food miles while using ~98% less land and water, bringing fresh harvests directly to the point of use.
Overall, the Flex Micro transforms small spaces into high-performance grow hubs—delivering consistent, high-quality crops with low inputs—so schools, healthcare systems, and culinary operators can elevate nutrition, learning, and sustainability year-round.
