Custom Solutions

Tailored Growing Solutions for Every Rooftop and Outdoor Space

At Up Top Acres, we understand that every rooftop, courtyard, or urban space comes with its own unique challenges and opportunities. That’s why we offer custom growing solutions designed to meet your specific needs. Whether you’re looking to incorporate fabric pots, vertical gardens, or optimize existing planters, our team works with you to develop a solution that maximizes your space and sustainability goals.

Why Choose Custom Growing Solutions?

Not all urban spaces are built the same. Some rooftops may have weight restrictions, others may have limited sun exposure, and some properties may already have existing planters that need optimization. Our custom growing solutions allow businesses, property owners, and organizations to integrate functional and efficient green spaces that work within their environment’s constraints while enhancing sustainability and food production.

Benefits of Custom Solutions

  • Utilize underutilized spaces for food production and green infrastructure

  • Maximize growing potential in areas with space or structural limitations

  • Enhance urban aesthetics with innovative and functional designs

  • Support biodiversity and improve air quality with plant integration

  • Create engaging community spaces through urban agriculture initiatives

Custom Growing Solutions We Offer

Fabric Pots for Flexible and Lightweight Gardening

Fabric pots are an excellent option for rooftops and urban areas where weight and space are concerns. These lightweight, breathable containers promote better root health and plant growth while allowing for easy mobility and reconfiguration as needed. They are ideal for a variety of crops, including herbs, vegetables, and flowers, and can be arranged to maximize available space efficiently.

  • Suitable for rooftops with weight limitations

  • Excellent drainage and aeration for healthier plants

  • Easily moveable for seasonal planting adjustments

  • Sustainable and reusable for long-term use

Vertical Gardens for Space Optimization

For urban properties with limited ground space, vertical gardens provide an effective way to incorporate greenery and food production without sacrificing square footage. These systems allow plants to grow on walls, trellises, or modular structures, making them a great solution for restaurants, office buildings, and residential properties looking to add functional and aesthetic greenery to their spaces.

  • Ideal for narrow spaces and high-traffic urban environments

  • Creates natural insulation to regulate building temperature

  • Can be integrated into commercial, residential, and municipal properties

  • Supports pollinators and enhances biodiversity

Enhancing Existing Planters for Maximum Efficiency

Many properties already have planter beds or garden spaces, but they may not be fully optimized for productivity. We work with property owners to improve soil health, upgrade irrigation systems, and introduce high-yield planting strategies that maximize output and sustainability. Whether it’s a corporate campus, residential development, or restaurant garden, we tailor our approach to ensure that existing planters reach their full potential.

  • Improve soil quality and plant health

  • Increase food production capabilities in existing spaces

  • Upgrade irrigation systems for water conservation

  • Enhance aesthetics while maintaining function
