OUR MISSION / ABOUT US
ONNA is a widely diverse team of creative, resilient, kind, and driven people from more than 20 different countries. We are a group of engineers, agronomists, problem solvers, saleswomen, hustlers, food lovers and tinkerers on a mission to create a new green routine. We operate an indoor farm, where we produce delicious greens in a fully controlled and vertically stacked growth environment. Our technology is climate resilient and enables us to produce superior greens – plants that have an awesome shelf life, that are cleaner, tastier, and just a little different, and locally produced 365 days. We do this because we believe that changing the foodsystem is critical to building a more sustainable future. And, because we believe that people deserve to eat delicious greens.
The new green routine is just beginning! Our first farm started operating in Moss at the end of 2021, and we plan to expand throughout the Nordics in the coming years.

About ONNA
Food waste, meat-heavy diets, globalized supply chains, population growth, soil degradation and inefficient agricultural water consumption. These are a few of the many challenges that haunt our global food system, and they are set to amplify in the coming decades, as climate change reduces the world's arable land and disrupts global food supply chains.
Wow, that's kind of dark. So how do we enable food security for all in the age of climate change?
ONNA wants to be a part of the solution. We have identified vertical farming as a unique opportunity to change the way we eat and the impact we have on the environment.
ONNA's plants are farmed indoor in a fully controlled environment, enabling us to regulate and optimize lights, nutrients and the ambient environment in real time – thus facilitating optimal growing conditions for plants throughout their growth cycle. In addition, our plants are grown in a mineral solution rather than soil – this clean and pure growing environment eliminates the need for pesticides or other toxic chemicals. The vertical layout of a farm allows for a smaller areal footprint, enabling our farms to be built in proximity to cities, subsequently increasing local self sufficiency of food and reducing food waste.
In summary, we love our plants, and we want to make the best greens out there - allowing more people to truly enjoy their veggies whilst minimizing the environmental impact of their consumption.
