Singapore Airlines has transformed a New Jersey steel mill into the world's largest vertical farm to provide organic greens for in-flight meals.

Singapore Airlines is combating stereotypes about airplane food with a new initiative bringing super-fresh organic produce to its in-flight meals: The luxury carrier partnered with AeroFarms, which has transformed an abandoned steel mill near Newark International Airport into a massie vertical farm providing select greens for passengers’ dishes.

On conventional farms, salad greens may be harvested days—or even weeks—before being used. The veggies in SIA’s “Farm-To-Plane” program will be picked, delivered to the airport and used within 24 hours, in dishes like garden green salad, soy-poached chicken and heirloom-tomato ceviche. They'll start gracing plates in Business and Premium Economy on SIA’s Newark-to-Singapore flights in September.
