Grove Labs is an inventive idea from MIT graduate Jamie Byron. What Grove Labs does is it allows for monitoring and regulation of greens and vegetables inside the home.
It’s no secret that the food and especially the fruits and vegetables found in supermarkets are less than farm fresh. Many of them have been treated with various chemicals, but this is what Grove Labs hopes to fix. Grove Labs will be an app as well as an in-home unit.
For now, Grove Labs is for commercial farmers who want to regulate their crops better. The unit will feature modules for planting different kinds of vegetables and a fish tank for water to help the growth as well. Everything will be able to be regulated by the accompanying phone app.
