Building NYC's First Women's Wellness Farm

Hi, I'm Nishi from Queens, NY and I am an AgTech entrepreneur building NYC's First Women Wellness Farm. As a woman who has personally struggled with menstrual health issues and navigated the challenges of accessing holistic remedies in an urban environment, I am on a journey to grow nutritious food that help alleviate menstrual symptoms.  My journey led me to discover the powerful benefits of red clover microgreens in managing menstrual health issues. I am exploring sustainable agriculture focused on women's health through the design, technology, and innovation of growing red clover microgreens hydroponically.

There is a lack of accessible, nutritious foods that can help alleviate menstrual symptoms and promote women's health in urban areas. It primarily affects women and girls in New York City, particularly those experiencing period poverty or menstrual health issues. This occurs due to limited awareness of natural remedies for menstrual health and insufficient access to nutrient-dense foods that can support hormonal balance.

Build indoor vertical red clover microgreens farms near food banks or women’s shelters.
My farm will focus on growing red clover microgreens, which are known for their health benefits for women. Red clover microgreens are rich in isoflavones (which can help balance hormones and ease PMS symptoms), calcium, iron, magnesium, antioxidants, potassium, and Vitamins A, B-12, C, E, and K. My farm will serve women and girls in NYC with menstrual health issues such as PMDD and those experiencing period poverty.
