Plantaform is beginning the new year with a bang.

At CES, Plantaform won three major awards, including Best of Innovation in the food and agritech category.
The company will also be featured in CBC’s Dragon’s Den in February, plus showcase its device at Costco locations, including some in the Ottawa area.
Founded in 2020, Plataform leveraged technology from NASA to build an egg-shaped consumer device suitable for kitchen countertops to grow fruits and vegetables using fog.
