Dear Fellow Investor:

This company’s advance is so spectacular it could soon be the fastest growing company in North America. And the $1 stock could soar to $14 or more!

LOOK HERE…

Urban Barns’ unique technology grows dozens of fruits and vegetables in 1/4th the time of conventional field farming, and increases greenhouse yields up to 5 to 7 times. Even more amazing…

For most crops, they can get the same annual yield in 10,000 square feet “indoors” that conventional farmers need 25 acres to do outdoors!

Certified organic fruits and vegetables are grown on specially designed machines inside of sealed, sanitized, temperature-controlled buildings, located in densely populated urban areas.

With Urban Barns’ breakthrough technology…

Insect, disease, and weather damage are eliminated!
Seasons are irrelevant – the crops grow year-round!
Shipping costs and crop spoilage are history!
Produce is picked ripe and delivered the same day!


No sun is needed. No farmland is needed. No pesticides, herbicides, or chemical fertilizers are needed…

Water usage is cut by a phenomenal 99%. There’s no gathering, warehousing, or shipping (or any of these costs). Crop damage, spoilage, and loss are virtually eliminated.

All of the major problems of conventional farming are done away with and profits are through the roof!

That’s why I say the $1 URBF shares are headed for $14!

Consider the far-reaching ramifications of this incredible advance. World food crisis? It’s been solved!

For the first time ever, countries with limited arable land, tight water supplies, and severe weather conditions can provide fresh wholesome food to their citizens -- every single day of the year -- at significantly lower costs.

How about hard, unripe, flavorless, stale and spoiled produce? It’s history!

City dwellers will now get fresh, locally grown, great-tasting organic produce every day of the year, at prices competitive to the unripe, stale, poor-tasting conventional produce they’re buying now.

The profit opportunity of the decade

Hi, I’m Tim Fields, editor of Untapped Wealth, the advisory letter for investors seeking fortune-making profits in today’s finest emerging companies.


This startling business concept was devised by a couple of financial and marketing whizzes – Daniel McNeill Meikleham (former CFO of a $1.2 billion company based in Dubai) and Gerald Fitzpatrick, a Direct Sales star who’s set sales records with several multinational companies.Urban Barns (URBF) is my latest discovery, and, WOW, what a story…

There’s nothing comparable to Urban Barns in the business world today. But let me take a stab at an analogy, and we’ll see if we can get close…

Imagine if you could suddenly get a fresh-brewed cup of Starbuckscoffee for the same price as Instant Maxwell House. Would you ever touch the inferior product again?

Of course not. And you won’t settle for unripe, old, stale, flavorless pesticide-grown produce any longer, either.

Take the 17-million greater New York market as an example. New Yorkers who buy strawberries today get hard unripe berries with white centers shipped in from California or Mexico. Those strawberries are picked unripe.

They are gathered, warehoused, then shipped cross country to regional distributors who finally deliver them to NY area stores. As a result, New Yorkers eat strawberries that are 14 days old. Yuk!

Let me ask you… how long do you think it’ll take Urban Barns to capture the New York market, once they’re supplying fresh, ripe, locally grown strawberries every day of the year?

A monumental improvement in flavor

I’ll answer that for you -- At the first bite, for the simple reason the Urban Barns strawberries taste 10 times better. And yet the story is so much bigger than this…

You see, within a few short years, every grocer in every major city can be a farmer’s market offering safe, fresh, ripe, great-tasting organic produce every day of the year.

Every restaurant chef will be able to improve his or her dishes and desserts…

And you and I will be able to buy locally grown, ripe and freshorganic lettuce, tomatoes, potatoes, cucumbers, peppers, peas, celery, spinach, basil, strawberries, boysenberries, raspberries, cantaloupes and many more fruits and vegetables – every single day of the year!

You want fresh boysenberries for Thanksgiving? You got it. You want ripe flavorful cantaloupe for Christmas? You got it!


You’re in New York? You want red, ripe, sweet juicy strawberries, picked and delivered fresh to your local grocer the same day you buy them? You got it! And you won’t hardly pay a dime morethan you did for those rotten strawberries from California.

In half a minute, I’m going to show you this amazing technology, and we’ll also look at how fast URBF could become a $billion company with shares rocketing to $14 or more…

Already, Urban Barns is launching in two major markets in the coming weeks – Vancouver and Puerto Rico. The greater New York market will follow, and then they’ll move on to several more large U.S. cities, as well as to big urban markets overseas.

And, fortuitously, all this is coinciding with a major consumer buying trend…

The trend today is toward safe, fresh,
healthy, locally grown produce

Today, consumers want to know where their food is grown. They don’t want food from China, Mexico, Chile, or any other foreign country with lax safety standards. And, increasingly, they don’t want their produce shipped in from out of state. Why? Because it’s not fresh. And what’s more, the shipping burns fossil fuels that contribute to pollution and global warming.

Consumers are also becoming acutely aware of the downsides of pesticides, chemical fertilizers, polluted air, water, and soil, as well as genetic engineering, all of which kills flavor and is unhealthy.

In short, consumers want safe, healthy, organic food that is locally grown. They want farmer’s market freshness, quality, and flavor. And they don’t want to pay more for it.

Already 50% of North American consumers buy at least some organic produce every year. And surveys show that the only thing holding them back is price and limited availability.


Recently, First Lady Michelle Obama set the new tone when she planted a organic vegetable garden on the White House lawn.

I’m telling you – this trend to fresh, local, and organic is only going to get stronger, and only Urban Barns is in a position to deliver fresh high quality organic produce every day of the year! I’ve been racking my brain, trying to think of “sea changes” as big as what Urban Barns is doing.

I thought of Clarence Birdseye, who invented the frozen food industry in 1925. Four years later he sold his idea to General Foods for $22 million (huge money in 1929).

McDonald’s comes to mind, of course. They gave folks a decent hamburger in a clean well-lighted place. Starbucks took America’s favorite drink to a higher level (at sky-high profits, I might add). But consider this…

Overnight, all of Urban Barns’ competitors have a product that is inferior. Their business models are obsolete. They can’t compete on production speed, cost, or quality. They’ve got a whole host of problems that don’t exist for URBF. And they’re not green!

Competitors have been leapfrogged!

The fact is, Urban Barns’ patented technology is far superior to anything in existence today. And it’ll be years before the competition can catch up...

Right now, URBF shares are selling near $1. But only because very few people know what they’ve got… what’s about to happen… and just how dramatically they’re going to change the fresh produce market.

URBF shares could easily jump 3 to 4 fold when news of their breakthrough hits the Street any day now. And after that, it’s off to the races!

Already URBF has targeted the 3 largest sellers of organic produce in North America, including Wal-Mart. And speaking of the world’s largest retailer…

Wal-Mart has discussed Urban Barns to be its #1 provider of lettuce in Puerto Rico, where they operate 30 stores. Currently, Wal-Mart sells 3 million heads of lettuce annually there. But this is just a pilot program…

Wal-Mart is interested in much bigger things, and Urban Barns figures prominently in their plans…

You see, Wal-Mart has nearly 3,000 stores that sell produce, and the company has made a commitment to become the world’s largest retailer of organic food (they’re right in step with this major buying trend).

But wait! Why would Wal-Mart want to make Urban Barns the main supplier of its organic produce? Especially when they have long-standing relationships with giant growers in California, Mexico, and Chile?

Simple. the giant growers can’t accommodate Wal-Mart’s famous “just-in-time” distribution model.

You see, when an item is scanned at the checkout of any Wal-Mart store, the information goes immediately into the computerized distribution system and a replacement is on its way back to that store.

But Wal-Mart’s sophisticated supply-chain software doesn’t mesh with conventionally grown produce that’s subject to weather and long-haul shipping.

Even setting aside the fact that conventionally grown produce arrives stale at most Wal-Mart’s, the large growers can’t adapt their variable production schedules to Wal-Mart’s computerized supply-chain model. But…

Urban Barns can do exactly that!

Urban Barns grows its crops locally, indoors, year-round, and at rates 1/4th the time of conventional field farming...


All of the Urban Barns produce is branded, labeled, and bar-coded. Every head of lettuce, every carton of strawberries, every basket of peppers can be scanned…

Any number of barns can be located within a short driving distance of Wal-Mart stores. They can supply all of the produce the chain needs, on a daily basis, using the “just-in-time” supply-chain software.

And that’s why Urban Barns will take this market away from the big boys!

Think of it -- 3,000 Wal-Mart stores, not just buying lettuce, but also tomatoes, peppers, spinach, cucumbers, basil, strawberries, melons, and dozens more fruits and vegetables!

You can probably triple your money on URBF within few days or weeks. And my advance notice today gives you just such an advantage…

But why leave money on the table? I’m telling my readers to hold on to their URBF shares, as this stock could easily go to $14 in a few short years.

And here’s why…

The conservative DuPont Analysis – which is the standard business analysis used by large banks for lending – shows 25.6% profit per quarter for URBF. That’s not per year, but per quarter!

It’s a profit rate literally unheard of in business today. And it’ll enable Urban Barns to double in size every year using its own cash, even while possibly paying stockholders $3 per share dividends!

Do you see why I say the $1 URBF shares are going to $14?

Sure. But let me show you URBF’s unique technology. I want you to see how incredibly efficient it is, and why it’s going to change everything.

Technology that will change the world

Urban Barns growing machines include several different models, each optimized for certain crops. But to describe a typical machine – it’s like a carousel, 20 feet tall, 12 feet wide, and 16 feet long.

This carousel is fitted with 8 revolving tubular carriages, each capable of holding several hundred plants. And at the heart of each carriage is a bank of lights, speeding the growth of the plants. It gets more interesting…

The plants are constantly being rotated and exposed to gravity, which compresses their size and results in shorter, stronger growth and more flowering sites.

This unique growing process is called “orbitropism” and that’s what contributes to the extraordinarily high yields.

The plants grow very close together, and the rotation also creates a gentle breeze. The plants love this! And with no bugs to eat the crops, no disease, drought, or foul weather to harm them, the plants are the picture of robust health.

Just 12 machines taking up 1,800 square feet of floor space will grow 108,000 pounds of basil or spinach per year.


36 machines will grow 3.1 million heads of lettuce per year, enough to supply 30 giant Wal-Mart stores.

The same number of machines will grow 5 million cartons of strawberries! Attention New Yorkers: your life just got better!

Urban Barns can also grow herbs, and not only are these sold to consumers in grocery stores, but they have important uses to pharmaceutical companies for making drugs (a multi-billion dollar market in itself).

The plants are not grown in soil, but rather in a proprietary organic growing medium that is both purified and enriched. The entire environment is sealed, sanitized, and temperature controlled. Quality and safety are assured – exactly what consumers want!

But what about electricity costs?

Good question. Electricity costs a lot more than free sunlight, but Urban Barns is using state-of-the-art LED technology, specifically tuned for optimal plant growth, and these lamps cut electricity costs by 7-fold, even while accelerating growth. Electricity is an expense but not a major cost factor. Neither are rents for the buildings to house the machines. Nor is water or labor.

Many machines can be ganged inside of low-rent windowless warehouses, which are vacant by the thousands in North America.

Purified water is pulled from the air. And then recycled. Water usage is cut by 99% over conventional farming. And the only water that leaves the building is in the crop.

Compare that to the run-off of polluted agricultural water that plagues many communities, fouls streams and lakes, and threatens wildlife. By contrast, Urban Barns is green!

Labor isn’t a problem. Each barn will have a single sales manager, two green thumbs to manage the crops, and unskilled day labor to pick the produce as needed.

Urban Barns biggest expense will be the seedlings, and even these will be provided at low cost by Urban Barns partner, BevoFarms, a subsidiary of BevoAgro, a publicly traded company, which the #1 plant propagator in North America.

And this is important…

Jack Benne -- vice president of operations of BevoAgro, and now partner, director, and COO ofUrban Barns -- is widely considered the top “green thumb” in North America -- and some say, the world.

Benne is expert at using computer technology (now combined with Urban Barns’ amazing technology) to produce healthy, high-yield plants on fast growth cycles. Here’s how it works…

Under Benne’s direction, healthy seedlings will be supplied to Urban Barns from BevoAgro, and they’ll be installed on the computer-controlled machines. Green thumbs trained by Benne will manage the crops, and in a few weeks the fruit will be picked ripe and delivered to local stores the same day.

100% efficiency – no crop losses!

All of the produce Urban Barns grows will be sold by contract, delivered to local stores fresh daily. And because there are no pests to fight… no diseases to deal with… no weather to damage crops… no long-haul shipping to cause spoilage…

Virtually everything that’s grown will be sold! Compare that to conventional growers who lose 30% to 50% of many crops to spoilage during shipment.

Do you see why I’m so excited about URBF? They can produce crops far faster, in much less space, with far less water, at much lower costs. They’ve got the competition beat with a stick from the get-go!

For the first time in history…

Giant retailers like Wal-Mart, big grocery store chains, and small organic food sellers alike will be able to offer fresh, locally grown, great-tasting organic produce -- in the city -- every day of the year. And at very competitive prices!

It’s a stunning advance that can transform food production and make early URBFinvestors rich!


Remember, all Urban Barns produce is branded and labeled and available year-round. The brand is promoted via taste-testing. And one bite is all it takes because the difference in flavor is monumental!

Consumers will quickly learn there is one brand they can count on for freshness, taste, safety, and quality – Urban Barns! And you can be sure they’ll ask for it!

Let’s look at the rollout plan…

The first quarter calls for 6 barns for eth greater Vancouver and Puerto Rican markets (6 million people). Incicentally, Vancouver is right now one of the biggest markets for organic foods, as consumers have been demanding it there for some time. An additional 25 barns spanning Canada are planned for the subsequent 3 quarters.

The second year may see the addition of 36 barns, as URBF rolls into the 17 million-strong greater New York market. And after that, the company can double in size every year with its own cash.

One barn is capable of generating about $900,000 in annual sales. Just 116 barns will generate $14 million in sales!

The DuPont Analysis shows the company debt-free and at $145 million equity the 3rd year. Equity jumps to $253 million the 4th year, and to $482 million the 5th year.

At that point, the company may be throwing off $3 dividends, and that’s when I expect the stock to hit $14 or more.

But again, you may be wise to just hang on to your URBF shares. And here’s why…

Urban Barns solves global food crisis!

Dozens of countries around the world have serious food and water shortages…

And just recently, McGill University held a symposium on the global food crisis. Topics such as global food security, policy planning, increasing agriculture production, water shortages, investment and research were discussed at length.

Recommendations included ways to directly feed people, increase food production, conserve water, increase crop yields, and decrease production costs. Sound familiar?

The Urban Barns technology – growing crops in 1/4th the time, in 1/100th of the space, with 1% of the water, while also eliminating crop damage and long-haul shipping that accounts for 70% of the end price – meets all of the recommendations!

AND LOOK HERE…

Urban Barns cofounder Daniel Meikleham -- former CFO of a $1.2 billion company based in Dubai -- is working through his connections to establish Urban Barns in several Middle Eastern countries, who have already expressed a keen interest!

Can it be long before URBF is a $billion company? I don’t think so!

I’m convinced Urban Barns will soon be the fastest growing company in North America. Andinvestors who buy URBF shares today could see their investments swell to fortunes!

Just act now, before URBF gets away from you. I’m convinced this is the opportunity of the decade!
