Edible Garden to feature first-to-market USDA Organic Hydroponic Basil at 2025 Global Produce & Floral Show

Edible Garden has announced that it will showcase its innovative USDA Certified Organic Hydroponic Basil at the Global Produce & Floral Show, taking place October 16–18, 2025, at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, California.

The Global Produce & Floral Show, organized by the International Fresh Produce Association, is expected to draw over 20,000 attendees, 1,100+ exhibitors, and decision-makers from 70+ countries. This event brings together professionals from every link of the fresh produce and floral supply chains—growers, retailers, wholesalers, tech/supply vendors, and more—for networking, education, and business innovation on a global scale.

"USDA Organic Hydroponic Basil represents a breakthrough in herb production, combining the sustainability and efficiency of hydroponics with the trusted standards of USDA Organic certification," said Jim Kras, Chief Executive Officer of Edible Garden.

"This first-of-its-kind innovation delivers ultra-fresh flavor, extends shelf life, and significantly reduces food waste through its root-on, living format. By showcasing it at the 2025 Global Produce & Floral Show, we are reinforcing our commitment to advancing climate-resilient, resource-efficient agriculture that uses up to 90% less water than conventional farming while reducing food miles through local year-round cultivation. This launch perfectly aligns with our Zero-Waste Inspired mission and further establishes Edible Garden as a leader in controlled environment agriculture. Most importantly, it offers today's health-conscious, environmentally aware consumers a cleaner, better-for-you choice that embodies sustainability, innovation, and flavor."
