Globinar Micro-Gardening: Transforming Homes into Hubs of Agricultural Innovation
Empowering Urban Growers to Build Sustainable, Food-Secure, Revenue-Generating Ventures within Communities Having Global Reach
- Wednesday, December 17th at 10am PT / 1pm ET / 6pm London + Accra

Learn about the FarmersClick™ MicroGarden Movement and the VirtualPlexer™ Digital Property Management Platform, a comprehensive business model that merges two transformative technologies into one unified and scalable ecosystem.
This integration positions our company at the forefront of sustainable innovation—bridging urban agriculture, digital real estate, artificial intelligence, and eCommerce to deliver measurable social impact and strong financial returns.
FarmersClick™, partially funded through a research grant from Tuskegee University, has established itself as a pioneering platform in urban agriculture, education, and community engagement. Its signature MicroGarden™ Movement empowers apartment residents to grow fresh produce at home, supported by AI-driven eLearning, affiliate commerce, and data analytics.
The VirtualPlexer™ platform extends this mission into the digital economy by transforming real-world apartment communities into virtual income-generating assets. Through virtual property ownership, gamified engagement, and affiliate shopping, VirtualPlexer™ introduces a new digital real estate model where every property functions as a self-sustaining micro-business.
By combining these two concepts, the platform ecosystem creates dual impact—real-world sustainability and virtual profitability. Residents grow food in their physical communities while virtual property owners manage their digital “mirror communities” online.
This powerful connection between the physical and virtual worlds creates a Virtual-to-Physical (V2P) model that supports community development while generating recurring revenue through multiple streams, including virtual property sales, affiliate shopping, eLearning, and sponsorships.
With research funding from Tuskegee University, private founder investment, and a clear path toward national expansion, we are now seeking additional investment to scale this platform across apartment communities and digital marketplaces nationwide. Our combined growth projections exceed $10 million within three years, with diversified revenue streams and a strong return on investment for early partners.
We invite you to review the business plan and explore this opportunity to be part of a movement that merges AI technology, sustainability, and entrepreneurship.
