Newark vertical farmer AeroFarms will expand distribution of its leafy greens to more than 350 Stop & Shop locations across the Northeast this fall.
The expansion, announced Oct. 7, will include stores in New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts and Rhode Island.
“We are excited to be able to expand our distribution with a great partner like Stop & Shop to offer our high-quality produce all year round at consistent pricing and availability, and we can help grow the entire category of leafy greens and drive consumption with our sustainably-grown produce that is ultimately winning on taste,” said AeroFarms CEO and co-founder David Rosenberg.
AeroFarms’ selection of leafy greens includes kale, arugula, and a variety of microgreens including micro arugula, micro broccoli, micro kale, micro rainbow mix, micro spicy mix and micro super mix.
All AeroFarms greens are grown indoors in New Jersey completely pesticide free.
In addition to Stop & Shop, they’re available at Walmart, Whole Foods Market, ShopRite, Amazon Fresh, FreshDirect, and Baldor Specialty Foods.
