About Tardis Fields
Family management, Global vision
Together we founded Tardis Fields – Two brothers, Yossi and Shlomzion Zion Halfon, who are well aware of climate change and concerned about the future of their children and our planet. Our background has facilitated in veering the matter to a business approach, but it is also personal in terms of striving to streamline processes for business owners and proprietorship.
Shlomzion Zion Halfon is the founder of Gallifrey-Canna, a medical cannabis company in Israel. In addition, he has over 25 years’ experience in the food industry as a consultant in the food and catering business, kitchen and restaurant management, as well as having owned a boutique catering company himself.
Yossi Halfon’ experience encompasses 25 years in sales, retail management for leading chains, and in wholesale at a leading import company. He is also a business consultant for small businesses, a swimming enthusiast, and is a firm believer in the motto, “healthy body, healthy mind.”
Together, we combined our passions and beliefs to bring the future of nature to the city
With Box4Grow innovative containers, we dream of bringing the finest agricultural produce to all business owners, whether in agriculture, retail, cuisine, or entrepreneurship, directly to their hands, while conserving space, time, and money.
Each container arrives set up and ready to use with plug and play, a user friendly and easy-to-operate system, providing the optimal growing conditions for each fruit, vegetable, or flower. Operation is quick and easy, thanks to automatic growing systems and technology that requires no prior knowledge of agriculture.
Looking to the Future
Classical agriculture is gradually shifting away from our lifestyle, and urban agriculture is taking its place. The world is evolving, weather conditions are changing, and the population is growing. These factors haven given traditional agriculture a hard blow. The journey from the field to our tables expose the vegetables to damage by the elements and pests. Fertilizers and pesticides contaminate the soil, the food undergoes cold storage, and long periods of transport to the supermarket shelves create an unnecessary waste of fuel and air pollution. By the time the vegetables have reached our tables, they have already lost a large portion of nutritional value, freshness, and flavor.
The development of the agri-tech industry has taken an upsurge in recent years. New technologies have been developed for ecological crop production in line with the concept of nutritional sustainability – food security – allowing us to grow fresh food for ourselves simply and effortlessly, and free of pesticides and chemical spraying. At the same time, it reduces environmental pollution, promotes agricultural communities in urban areas, saves money, and avoids the use of harmful chemicals.
Finally, we can grow the food we consume within the community in an urban environment. We can grow all year round, regardless of the weather, bringing the community field directly to our kitchens and plates – minimal effort, maximum results.
Vegetables of the Future
Imagine how wonderful it would be to walk into a supermarket or mall and buy fresh vegetables grown only a few meters away and picked minutes before? Sounds like a dream. Now it’s reality.
Box4Grow containers consist of a large hydroponic agricultural habitat, which utilizes advanced technology and automatic monitoring systems for temperature control, fertilization, and watering, thus providing the plant or vegetable with conditions that suit it best.
One container accommodates hundreds to thousands of seedlings, saving space and enabling them to grow under optimal conditions, regardless of weather, reducing the carbon footprint, conserving water, and without the need for pesticides, which contaminate the soil and damage the quality of the produce.
Fruit, vegetables, and flowers growing under excellent conditions
Each fruit, vegetable, flower, and plant gets exposed to their ideal conditions, resulting in healthy and tasty produce, free of harmful chemicals, and contributing to the quality of the environment. From the community garden to the grocer shop and farming terrain, our containers conserve a great amount of space, growing time, and costs. Most of all, we can enjoy the taste and quality of fresh, clean vegetables.
Attaining kosher status at the most stringent standards is easy, too, when the vegetables are grown without soil.
