Cloud Farms was created around the idea that everyone should have access to clean, fresh, healthy food, and that we should all have the ability to grow some of our own. Cloud Farms is more than just this product; we hope to build a company that continues to develop tools for growing that are simple, beautiful, and enjoyable. Tools that enable even those without time, growing experience or access to outdoor space.

AMPHORA

The Cloud Farms AMPHORA uses hydroponics to grow fresh herbs, flowers, and small greens without any of the hassle of trying to grow with soil indoors. With a 1.5L water capacity, AMPHORA holds enough water for the lifetime of your plant, meaning there is no watering. Plus our seed kits come with everything you need to get growing. Fill it with water, add a shot of nutrient, plant your seeds, and come back in 5-6 weeks to harvest your fresh herbs. All you need is a sunny windowsill.

Seed Kit options:

If you claim an AMPHORA perk, we will reach out to you after the campaign to see exactly what kind of seeds you would like.

AMPHORA won't ship until March...

...but if you contribute for an AMPHORA perk we will send you a postcard right away that you can gift for the holidays.

Our Process

What We Need & What You Get

We are going to do a first production run of at least 100 units. In order to do that, we would like to have pre-orders for at least half of that number, around 50 units, so that we can cover some of those production costs. Even if we don't hit our goal, we still plan to produce 100 units.

What we need to pay for upfront:

• Molds for slip casting ceramic.
• Brass stamp for the base of the pitcher.
• Amphora inventory costs including production, shipping, logo graphics, net cups, and packaging.
• Small item inventory for seed kits, including boxes, bags, growing medium, nutrients, printing, and seeds.
  

What you guys are going to get by supporting us now:

• Some early discounts on the first units.
• A postcard just in time for Christmas.
• Products from our first production run.
• The satisfaction of knowing that you helped to drive forward our future of personal farm systems!

Timeline

Risks & Challenges

Some of the challenges we face and how we will overcome:

• We need to get through the first production run with our supplier. We will be be working closely with them to make sure that everything comes out exactly as it should. If there is any delay in our production process, we will let everyone know immediately of what is going on and when you can expect to recieve your perk.
  
• We are going to be shipping products for the first time! It is incredibly exciting for us, and we want to make sure that you are satisfied with what you get! If something is not right with your product, let us know and we will work fast to fix it.
