About Us
We make the tools to turn imagination into reality
Creation is what we spark. It lives in every idea, every sketch, every moment someone dreams of building something new. It’s what drives us to rethink how things are made — locally, sustainably, and on demand. For the makers. For our neighbors and the local stores that are the lifeblood of our communities. For the next generation of builders. Everywhere. Anytime. At the speed of possibility.
Our History in Photos
Made in America for all
of Humanity
Itemfarm was born from urgency and purpose. When global supply chains collapsed in 2020, our founders — Alder, Ching, and Joe — stepped up to help communities across the U.S. produce the critical medical supplies they couldn’t source. That same spirit drives us today. We design and build the Orchard in America, but our mission is global: give every community across the planet the ability to make what it needs, when it needs it.
Bridging Sustainability & Manufacturing
We live in an age of unrealized abundance, but with the Orchard communities can transform discarded plastic into useful, meaningful products — turning what once cluttered streets and landfills into tools, art, and everyday goods. By giving neighborhoods the ability to recycle and create locally, we help make communities not only more self-reliant, but more beautiful. Clean streets, empowered classrooms, and storefronts full of locally made products — all built from what was once considered trash.
The Right Tools for a New Generation of Makers
We believe hands-on creation should be part of every classroom and community. Our Orchards turn imagination into reality, giving students and educators the ability to design, produce, and learn manufacturing in real time. We help schools deliver on the promise of preparing the next generation for the world of making. We combine cutting-edge technology with practical support, ensuring that educators have everything they need to inspire future innovators and builders.
