Seneca College
Just Vertical and Seneca College have been collaborating for several years on research and key indoor growing infrastructure projects.
A keystone of this research focused on measuring the nutrition of different plants grown with Just Vertical farms vs. store-bought produce. Through our collaborative research, we were able to determine that our farms produce more nutritious produce than store-bought produce, helping us better understand the impact of our farms.

University of Toronto
Our founders are proud UofT alumni — and we’ve continued to work closely with the university through collaborative research projects.
In the early days of testing our farms, we partnered with UofT to evaluate their impact inside Revera’s urban senior homes in Toronto, where opportunities for hands-on interaction with plants and fresh food were scarce. What we saw was more than growth. Residents experienced improved morale, renewed curiosity, and a shared sense of purpose. The farms became living centrepieces — sparking conversation, engagement, and connection.

CTAAN
The Centre for Technology Adoption for Aging in the North (CTAAN), in collaboration with Just Vertical, conducted ADEPT Workshops to evaluate the impact of indoor farms in healthcare facilities, focusing on food availability, accessibility, and meaningful engagement.
CTAAN’s pioneering research revealed these farms as a promising solution for improving quality of life, well-being, and food security for older adults, caregivers, and healthcare systems in northern and rural communities.
