Just Forking Around

Did you know we’re living in the future?

It became crystal clear for me during this conversation with Ting Feng, CEO & co-founder of Kula Ai & the Kulafoods App. Kula Ai is an Australian-based Agriculture tech startup that's creating sustainable tech to find new ways to feed the world.

“We want to find a new way to feed the world.” –Ting Feng

They are using two technology-driven approaches to accomplish this forking huge task: the @Kulafoods app that connects users to all of the sustainable and healthy food vendors in their community and the soon-to-be-launched @KulaHarvest, a series of AI-powered urban farming hardware.

All I can say is wow. The future is now, and I’m all for it!

“My passion has always been to help hardworking members of communities, like the food producers, to have a platform, to have a voice, and to showcase their craft so that it’s equally as competitive as those selling in supermarkets” –Ting Feng
