Here is the script from a soon-to-be-published interview done by a major publication:

QUESTION: Mr. Lang, what is the concept behind Fusion Farms?

ANSWER: Fusion Farms is a hurricane-protected, aquaponic vertical farm that is proving out a piece of the puzzle for a solution to Food Sovereignty for the Caribbean island of Puerto Rico.

QUESTION: What does that mean day-to-day at Fusion Farms? 

ANSWER: What that means is that we are proving out new urban farming inside of a hurricane-protected building.  We have a vertical rack structure in soil-less growing conditions, and provide nutrient-rich hyper-local fruits and vegetables to the local market.  That means our produce does not have to be shipped fifteen hundred miles from the US or other places, which is currently the case. Right now, 97% of the food that is consumed on the island of Puerto Rico is shipped in from other places around the world, predominantly the US. There are fifteen hundred food miles that the food has to travel. By the time it gets to Puerto Rico the nutrients are basically gone and it has been sitting on the docks for two weeks and gone through containers and been subjected to pesticides, preservatives and all kinds of issues.

QUESTION: Is the farming part well-known and viable, and is the added value you are able to have a hurricane-protected building? 

ANSWER: The value-add that we are creating is, in fact, the hurricane-protected piece of the puzzle. We are re-purposing a dormant asset of the Puerto Rico government, which are hundreds of buildings and 25 million square feet of buildings throughout Puerto Rico, many of which are vacant or abandoned. We are taking that asset and converting it into revenue-generating, job-creating, property-tax generating solutions where the technology of urban farming is not the risk in the equation. Aquaponics is being done thousands of times around the world and the science behind aquaponics has been around for four thousand years. We are not necessarily reinventing the wheel of aquaponics and vertical farming, which has been successfully done elsewhere. What we are unique in is putting it into a hurricane-protected solution, specifically to the circumstances in Puerto Rico.

QUESTION: Would you explain that solution? 

ANSWER:  As an example, our pilot project in Mayaguez, is an eleven thousand five hundred square foot, concrete warehouse building on 1.47 acres. That building was constructed in 1961 and has survived all of the hurricanes from George to Urma, to Maria, and is standing and intact virtually untouched by all of those catastrophic events. It has survived Hurricane Maria which was in recent history the strongest climatic event recorded by anybody in our generation. That building as an example, we are converting into an indoor urban aquaponic farm with racks, grow troughs, feed trays, where we are putting LED grow lights and we have a completely controlled environment, agricultural solution, inside that building. We will be producing a high volume of leafy green vegetables. In this case, we going to be growing micro greens, mint and basil and we will be producing it where we are going to be harvesting on a 21-28 day growth cycle.

Because of the urban farming techniques, we are able to increase the yield so we are nine to twelve times what a traditional farm would generate in the same square footage. We are much more efficient and we use 10% or less of the water than traditional farming. We have completely organic standards that we are growing to, which means we have no herbicides, no pesticides, and no chemicals. That is because aquaponically, the water that is feeding the nutrients to the plant, comes from Tilapia that are grown in fish tanks, and when they “do their business” it takes ammonia in the water and it is converted naturally through bacteria processes, into nitrates and nitrites, and it is those nutrients that are absorbed by plants, then the plants clean the water and it is circulated back to the fish. It is a controlled environment agricultural or CEA structure.

QUESTION: Why is local food production important and isn’t there more to consider than freshness?

ANSWER: We support and believe in hyper-local produce production, but not for the reasons or arguments most people make.  Our rational has to do with the actual nutrient value of produce and what "Food Miles" do the real nutritional value of food when it spends weeks in a truck or container and is moved halfway around the globe.  Nutritional science indicates eating not only local, but immediately, is one of the healthiest ways to go.  Here's an interesting fact most people don't know; the highest nutrient value in spinach is Vitamin C, but 90% of the Vitamin C in spinach is GONE within 24 hours of harvest!  That means if you're not eating spinach the day of harvest, you're not getting the real nutrient value that your body craves. University of California studies shows that vegetables can lose 15 to 55 percent of vitamin C, for instance, within a week. More generally, most produce loses 30 percent of nutrients three days after harvest, so eating "fresh" hyper-local means you actually have to eat it in what we like to say as a "Seeds To Tables" approach which implies that you have the ability to eat what is freshly harvested without dealing with long-distance transportation, preservatives or shelf-life.

Our philosophy of "Seeds To Tables" means that you purchase or harvest greens when you plan to eat them and eat them while they’re still fresh and the leaves have not wilted.

The three natural destroyers of vitamins in fruits and vegetables are heat, light, and oxygen. Nutrients in fruits and vegetables start to break down after harvest. Even after picking, fruits and vegetables remain alive. It's that very quality, however, that contributes to spoilage and loss of nutrients. After picking, fruits and vegetables continue to breathe. This process, called respiration, breaks down stored organic materials, such as carbohydrates, proteins, and fats, and leads to loss of food value, flavor and nutrients. Produce will lose heat from this respiration as well as moisture, which is one of the ways nutrients are lost. The longer produce has to breathe before it is consumed, the less likely it is to retain nutrients. The Harvard Medical School Center for Health and the Global Environment notes that food transported long distances is not likely to be as nutritious as food grown and consumed locally. Another potential source of nutrient loss has to do with whether produce was ripe at the time it was picked. Climacteric crops, such as tomatoes, can be picked before full ripeness. The fruit may attain full color after picking, but it will not attain the highest nutrient levels. According to the Harvard Medical School Center for Health and the Global Environment, total vitamin C has been shown to be higher when the tomato is picked ripe from the vine.

The Center for Health and the Global Environment recommends choosing produce that is as fresh as possible. If you can't grow your own, look for local farms or growers. The center also notes that buying locally increases the chances of nutritional diversity and decreases the amount of handling, since local produce is commonly picked by hand rather than machine. Minimal handling means less chance of contamination, which can increase the rate of decay.

So, the ultimate "right answer" is to find growers as close to where you're consuming produce as possible.

QUESTION: What is it about the building that has shielded it from hurricanes? 

ANSWER: The beauty of construction in Puerto Rico for industrial and commercial buildings is that they are designed to withstand hurricanes, so if you think about San Juan, which is a population of three million people, high-rise buildings, hotels and residences, the majority of the construction standards for those types of buildings, is concrete, so it is reinforced, steel rebar with concrete construction that is designed to withstand 300 mph winds. The fastest recorded winds for hurricane Maria were something like 270 mph. The nature of the construction was designed to withstand those particular events because the Caribbean every year is prone hurricanes. That recurring climatic event is anticipated and designed into the building design codes and zoning requirements. The buildings during Hurricane Maria were predominantly left intact. There were wood-stick structures, tin roofs, vegetation or greenhouses which were devastated by Hurricane Maria, but the majority of the catastrophic damage was in vegetation and structures that were not designed to withstand hurricane-force winds.

QUESTION: It has always been possible? Why has it never been done? 

ANSWER: The beauty is that these buildings have been proven to be hurricane-resistant. We do not say hurricane-proof because nothing is hurricane-proof. However, these buildings have survived all of those catastrophic events. The technology exists, it is just nobody has ever put this particular use inside these buildings. Now Puerto Rico, because of tax incentives that expired in the pharmaceutical industries over the last decades, has an economic problem that caused these buildings to become vacant, though in that vacancy they became deferred maintenance or vandalism, they have just been sitting empty so there is tremendous glut of abandoned buildings all over the island for economic reasons. What we have done is create and take advantage of the attention that the hurricane had brought to the island. Here is how we solve that problem, we take a dormant or unused asset of the Puerto Rico government and convert it into a high revenue-generating job-creating business model and we can now populate hundreds of buildings with this solution that solves not only the real estate problem for the government of Puerto Rico but it also solves the food sovereignty problem and it creates jobs in the process.

When Governor Ricardo Rosselló Nevarez was elected, they put together their top ten initiatives to fix the economic engine that is broken in Puerto Rico and lots of bad press about the debt structure and the corruption and all the challenges that Puerto Rico has had. The Rosselló administration is doing an excellent job of taking this catastrophic event of Hurricane Maria and turning it into an opportunity to use the resources that have been made available to Puerto Rico in the form of federal dollars for reconstruction. They have said they are not going to just rebuild the way it has been done for hundreds of years, they are going to use the funds and the opportunity to recast the vision of Puerto Rico to be a world leader and to be the stepping-off point to connect the Americas because of its geographic position and its bilingual structure and heritage of being a US territory. Yet with such a strong connection to the Latino community through Central and South America, it is a natural gathering point for being this new thoroughfare for business throughout the Americas.

There are huge incentives they have created and huge plans that they have. The number one initiative for job creation and solving this economic issue is agricultural which right now is less than 1% of the GDP of Puerto Rico.  That means that the 97% of the food is imported and Puerto Rico is a Net Importer of foodstuffs.  When we are able to shift that to just 80% of produce being grown on the island that is $3.5 billion economic turnaround and that becomes an economic driver that creates 88 thousand jobs on the island as well as using all this real estate.  That positions Puerto Rico to become a Net Exporter with revenue-generating real estate instead of dead assets on the books of the government.

QUESTION: When did you recognize that this was possible? 

ANSWER: I first started coming into Puerto Rico in 2016. I had been researching and looking at aquaponics as the farming solution for the world’s food crisis. If you look at the global food supply and population, there is a disconnect that any number of worldwide organizations and research organizations have documented that there is not enough land in the traditional agricultural structure to provide the food supply for what will soon be a nine billion headcount for population. Food and water become the new gold, and in that structure, you have to look at doing things differently. Agriculture and traditional farming have not changed in a hundred years. If you look at the growth in mega farming, it is soil based and adding preservatives and chemicals that is actually bleaching the soil. There is an excellent book called The Empty Harvest, which talks about the problems of mega farming. I have been researching for a long time on how we can create urban farming solutions that keep food production local which is how it used to be and how it still remains predominantly for example in Italy today.

If you go to Italy and go to restaurants there, you are eating naturally organically grown foods that are coming out of the ground in the season that they have been planted, they are not mega farms, they do not have chemicals or preservatives, they are eating what comes out of the ground naturally, so you do not have any GMO food. You do not have gluten intolerance problems in their society as we do in the US, for the simple reason that on the GMO side, it has not been to our population’s favor. My research has motivated me to look at the possible solutions for urban farming, and the vertical reuse of real estate was a natural progression of that. My wife and I actually relocated and became residents of Puerto Rico in 2018, and that was after having come here since 2016 and seeing that we actually could implement a solution that did not have all of these pieces of the puzzle. For example, we looked at Costa Rica as a potential place to relocate to but Costa Rica does not have hurricanes, they have tremendous farming solutions on a local basis. They are food sovereign. They have solved their agricultural issues, they do not need our help.

Puerto Rico needs tons of help, it does not have a solution for food sovereignty. It is critical that this island nation become an exporter of foods, not an importer of foods. By becoming an exporter of foods, the implicit understanding is that you then become self-sufficient and you use enough food that you consume it yourselves, then you have excess and you become an exporter. That has been a long way around saying that I have been looking at this for a long time but it was really Hurricane Maria that was the capstone to the problem and it really became that cornerstone discussion that got global attention where we now have a lot of eyes on this project.  There is funding available for something that is very expensive because there is a one-time upfront cost that is extraordinary compared to traditional farming.  When we prove this out from a revenue generation standpoint, it will more than justify and make investors very happy with the return on investment for this type of new urban farming. We have to prove it out and that is the purpose of us coming to Puerto Rico.

QUESTION: Where are you in the process of Fusion Farms today and what is your timetable going forward? 

ANSWER: We have completed our business plan. We have put together our advisory board and have a world-class team of advisors, both technical and agricultural. We have strategic partnerships with the University of Puerto Rico in Mayaguez, as well as have a private public partnership with the University of Arizona and their CEA or Controlled Environment Agriculture team. We have the partnership with Caribe Fisheries, which is a thirty-year operator of an aquaculture system here on the island that is going to be providing us with tilapia. We have two brothers who were operating an aquaponics business on the island in a greenhouse before Hurricane Maria, but that was completely destroyed during Hurricane Maria and they had to abandon that because they had no financial way to restore it. We brought them on our team. We have both an advisory team, advisory board and management team in place. We have also completed all of our filings so we are a corporation in good standing. We have been registered as a bonafide Agricultural Business, with the Department of Agricultural in Puerto Rico. We have our SAM.gov certification, so we are qualified federal contractor. What that means is we have been approved to apply for and have completed our application for a Rural Energy of America land grant from the USDA. That was submitted April 1^st. We have a high probability of achieving a grant for our solar installation. We have been awarded $250,000 in grant money from PRIDCO as part of our overall incentive program to make all this work.

Lisa and I have been coming to Puerto Rico since 2016 and if you want to know what motivates us and the passion we have (we always give credit to Les Brown for the saying, "the why should make you cry"), you can read a detailed background story at https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/seeking-resilience-independence-self-reliance-through-kendell-lang/ including our potential investment prior to Hurricane Maria.

We formed our Puerto Rico company in 2016, and we all know that Hurricane Maria put Puerto Rico squarely on the map on September 19, 2017, in terms of natural disaster and humanitarian relief. 80% of farms were destroyed by Hurricane Maria, just one of two devastating hurricanes where recovery still continues. The devastation to the island, the people and the farms crystalized the need for us to implement hurricane-protected vertical farming and this is why Lisa and I relocated to Puerto Rico.

We initially worked with a great guy by the name of Hector Sola Oliver at PRIDCO and we toured buildings all over the west side of the Island.  We thought we were going to lease a building in Aguada, but when we solidified our partnership with the University of Puerto Rico Mayagüez (https://www.fusionfarmspr.com/board-of-directors-and-advisors/) we opted to pursue the vacant building in the Guanijibo Industrial Park.  We were assigned to work with Anthony Cordona (standing center in the below picture) who has been nicknamed the “dream-maker” a moniker which has been fitting in our situation as he’s been an incredible champion of the Fusion Farms Opportunity and he’s been personally responsible for helping us navigate what otherwise would be a very confusing and frustrating process.  Anthony is the guy to whom we submitted our application, had our business plan reviewed and when our application was approved, we signed our Reservation Form and submitted our Deposits for the Lease of the building. That all started back in August of 2018, so we completed our plans, reprioritized our lives and physically relocated to Rincón November 1, 2018.

Suffice to say, we have been through many steps in the process working towards our ultimate goal of opening Fusion Farms and 'Growing Good Food For Good People'.  Anthony has been amazing in terms of shepherding us through what I already mentioned could have been an overwhelming process, so we are working with InvestPR to use our experience as a Case Study for everyone involved in the process to learn more about all those details in an effort to help encourage ways to streamline and make that process more efficient.  All this culminated in our accomplishing the following:

• Corporation formed in Good Standing
• Aug, 2018 - 3D Design Sketchup
• Sept, 2018 - Lease application submitted to PRIDCO approved for a hurricane-protected concrete building in Mayagüez, Puerto Rico
• October, 2018 - Secured partnership with University of Puerto Rico Agricultural Department
• November 1, 2018 – We became Rincónian’s!
• Nov, 2018 – Completed Executive Summary and Business Plan Including:
  • Crop List, Yield Projections, Pricing Model, Distribution Model, Staffing Plan, Construction Project Plan, Materials List and Sourcing Plan Project Timeline.
• Dec, 2018 - Completed SAM.gov qualification to apply for USDA programs
• Dec, 2018 - Feasibility Study Completed
• Jan, 2019 - Financial projections reviewed and signed by Lcda. Cynthia J. Rijo Sánchez, CPA/Attny
• Jan, 2019 - Obtained a Dunn & Bradstreet DUNS number
• Jan, 2019 – Approved and registered with the SEC as a REG CF
• Jan, 2019 - Launched the Fusion Farms Online Public Offering at Startengine.com/FusionFarms
• Feb, 2019 - Started International Marketing Campaign
• Mar, 2019 - Submitted our USDA REAP Grant Application
• Mar, 2019 - Obtained Conditional $1.5M Loan Commitment from Oriental Bank in Mayagüez
• Apr, 2019 - Completed our PSA Certification for the new Food Safety laws
• May, 2019 - Completed our Audited Historical Financials for SEC uplisting
• Submitted for our Certificación Bonafida de Agricultura (which cannot be issued until we are operating)
• June, 2019 - We have coordinated draft contracts and are ready to sign our General Contractor, Solar Power System, Racking Vendor, Light Vendor, Concrete Vendor, Water Cistern Vendor, Rainwater Harvest System, Master Certified Plumber, Civil Engineer, Certified and Authorized Professional for permit processing and selected our Equipment Vendor(s) for all operational requirements.
• June, 2019 - Took possession of the building in Mayagüez, applying for PREPA and PRASA accounts
• July 1, 2019 - Meeting with InvestPR to explore co-promotional and co-educational video production with Fusion Farms as the Poster Case Study
• July 3, 2019 - Scheduled Closing Date for Online Public Offering

All of this was completed based on the representations that we would achieve possession of an operational and functioning building in which we could start operations. Key requirements for taking possession of the building was our ability to get PREPA (power) and PRASA (water) accounts, which continue to be a challenge but which we hope to have resolved next week.  There were substantial repairs required, so you can see below some "Before-and-After" photos of the condition of the building at the start of our project and what it looks like today. Honestly, it was like pulling teeth to get the Lease Agreement completed in a form that we were willing to sign (appropriate warranties, representations, and indemnifications against prior Tenant environmental issues was a big one!), but we finally got the draft we needed and went through multiple rounds of required changes which were completed in order for us to sign.  

The Governor, Secretary Manuel A. Laboy Rivera, Eng. and Hon. Tania Vázquez Rivera, Secretary of DNER all showed up on Tuesday, May 21 at the building reserved for Fusion Farms and there were almost 200 people in attendance (the official count was 185).

We have been marketing our Online Public Offering and have been successful at getting IMPACT Investors to invest in our Puerto Rico Opportunity from around the globe.  This campaign has been incredible - it has not just raised capital from people who care about green, clean, hurricane-protected, aquaponic sustainable agriculture in Puerto Rico and want to do something about it, but also connected us with people all around the US and beyond (we have attracted investors not only from 26 US states and Puerto Rico, but from Switzerland, Chile, Australia, Singapore and India so far - all of whom are investing in our Puerto Rico Opportunity).

In terms of our efforts to promote the Governor coming to the Fusion Farms building in Mayagüez and issuing our PRIDCO Solar Grant Award at this Award Ceremony, I thought you would like to see the list of Google Indexed Pages where our Press Release was published five (5) days prior to the Event Date in over 19,000 sites.  That number has now increased to 30,500 sites in the past two weeks. That is the power of Social Media and the viral nature of solid news.

We have also been listed in the following premium news sites:

You can see the Governor's presentation at https://www.facebook.com/kendell.lang/videos/10218095044943726/

The Governor and his team made the presentation to Fusion Farms and all the other recipients of awards and the general announcement about incentives for the hydroponics and aquaponics industry. We got our signed Award Letter which I've previously submitted in a prior Update for your review. Here is our picture with the Governor after the presentations.

We were recognized and awarded the letter signed by PRIDCO confirming our solar grant! We were presented our solar grant award letter at the Governor's podium and shook Governor Rosselló's hand, Secretary Laboy's hand, and the hand of Hon. Tania Vázquez Rivera, Secretary of DNER.

We are more motivated than ever about "Growing Good Food For Good People." The generosity and encouragement from everyone on the Island has been humbling and inspiring.  

We appreciate all our IMPACT Investors support in this project and we are committed to achieving a positive solution that allows us to continue to be major champions of the opportunity ahead for Puerto Rico. This is such a fantastic opportunity for everyone involved, so we are now laser-focused to move this forward in a timely fashion so we can prove out the Pilot Project in Mayagüez.  We have gotten a tremendous response from Executive Chef's across the Island, from bars, hotels, restaurant owners, and produce distributors, so they are just waiting to buy anything we can grow!  The interesting part of this journey for us is that no one has said this is a bad idea.  Everyone agrees it is a necessary piece of the economic engine needed to help rebuild an agricultural component to the revitalization of PR. Our success will have a multiplier effect and we look forward to being the poster-project to which people point when they talk about the new path PR is taking. We're doing everything we know how to make sure this gets done!

RACK SYSTEM PROTOTYPE

We are pleased to announce that we've received the materials and our Rack Shelving Contractor has set up our Cantilever Arm Rack prototype in their warehouse in Ponce, Puerto Rico.  Here are two pictures of the Rack System, but it only has two levels of cantilever arms, whereas our final design has five (5) shelf levels.  

This only has one-half of the cantilever arms installed, so there is a mirror arm on the other side of the center posts.

Each Row will have five (5) of these sections which are 8' wide, so each Row will be 40' long.  Our Grow Troughs will be placed on these cantilever arms per the following design spec:

These drawings don't show the plumbing or the LED Grow Lights, so this gets pretty interesting from a design and layout perspective.

I will be going to Ponce next week to meet with our Shelving Contractor and inspect the materials, so it's getting very exciting!

Our success is now your success too! So, please keep telling your friends and family about Fusion Farms!

For those of you who have not yet invested, please act today. There are only 10 days left before our Campaign closes.

We are seeking IMPACT Investors who are interested in clean, green, renewable energy and agriculture investments. We want investors who are "philanthropically" oriented to "Do Well By Doing Good" and they should be sensitive to environmentally sustainable food and water solutions.

The PROBLEM that we solve is; Hurricane Maria destroyed 80% of the farms in Puerto Rico.  Puerto Rico is not a Food Sovereign Island and food security is a huge threat to the entire population.  The Island is a Net Importer of foodstuffs, importing over 90% of the food which is consumed on the Island.

Our SOLUTION is; Hurricane-Protected Aquaponic Vertical Farm utilizing renewable energy, rainwater harvest, aquaponics that utilizes 10% of the water of traditional agriculture and an indoor vertical rack system to grow 9 to 12 times the annual yield of traditional farming.

Our VALUE-ADDED Ingredient is; our partnership with the Puerto Rico Industrial Development Company (PRIDCO) which owns 25 million square feet of vacant, abandoned buildings all around the Island, all of which are concrete warehouses which have withstood all tropical storms and hurricanes over the last 60 years.  We are creating a new tax base for unutilized government buildings, creating new jobs for Puerto Ricans and helping Puerto Rico become a Food Sovereign territory.

Our TEAM is; a World-Class combination of Universities and Professionals (see https://www.fusionfarmspr.com/board-of-directors-and-advisors/) with decades of experience in Controlled Environment Agriculture or CEA.

Your OPPORTUNITY is; an investment of just $100 to a maximum of $100,000 to own a piece of Fusion Farms that is changing the food security of Puerto Rico. The CPA-reviewed financial projections (part of the Online Offering Memorandum) show a tremendous potential ROI on a very conservative basis.  Fusion Farms is also a Qualified Opportunity Zone Fund Investment, as well as a Qualified Small Business Stock, both of which are substantial benefits to investors who want to shelter or reduce their capital gains tax.

A GREAT OPPORTUNITY FOR PUERTO RICO INVESTMENT: Will you help us build a community of environmentally sensitive investors for Fusion Farms Puerto Rico? We have developed proprietary Aquaponic systems which will change Puerto Rico’s dependency on imported foodstuffs forever.

In order to invest, you need to go directly to https://www.startengine.com/fusionfarms and register there. You can then download our Offering Memorandum which is our Form C which has been filed with the SEC. You can complete your purchase online using a credit card, ACH, wire transfer and they also accept Bitcoin and Ethereum as forms of payment.

GLOBAL IMPACT INVESTING NETWORK’S 2019 ANNUAL IMPACT INVESTOR SURVEY HIGHLIGHTS A DIVERSE AND BURGEONING IMPACT INVESTING MARKET

The report presents new data on market activity, current trends, 
and the key developments and challenges facing the impact investing industry

NEW YORK, June 19, 2019 – The Global Impact Investing Network (GIIN) today published the ninth edition of its Annual Impact Investor Survey, the most comprehensive overview of the current global impact investing market.

Comprising data and insights from 266 of the world’s leading impact investors, the report provides in-depth analysis of market activity and trends, covering topics such as: industry challenges; impact measurement and management; financial and impact performance; indicators of market growth; and capital allocations by sector, geography, and instrument. Additionally, this year’s report provides new data on key market topics, including human resources; diversity, equity, and inclusion; and the role of government and policy.

Amit Bouri, CEO and co-founder of the GIIN, said, “Global challenges like entrenched inequality and climate change require large-scale, urgent action, and impact investors are stepping up to help fuel positive progress. They are accounting for considerations that have long been ignored in the financial sector—the impact of investments and businesses on people and the planet.” He continued, “Our research shows that the growth of impact investing has largely been fueled by client demand, which demonstrates the powerful potential for people to influence positive change in the financial system.”

Sapna Shah, Managing Director at the GIIN, said, “This year’s Annual Impact Investor Survey shows our industry is increasingly sophisticated. We are starting to overcome challenges that used to stop conversations before they started, such as the misperception that financial trade-offs are necessary across all impact investment strategies. Fully one-third of survey respondents are motivated to make impact investments because of – not in spite of – their financial return potential. This shows investors increasingly see alignment between business objectives and transformative impact.”

Some key findings from this year’s survey report include:

• The impact investing industry is diverse. Survey respondents represent a variety of investor types, including fund managers, foundations, banks, development finance institutions, family offices, pension funds, and others. A majority of the investors are headquartered in developed markets; assets are allocated globally, with about half invested in emerging markets. Respondents also allocate across a variety of sectors, with the greatest share allocated to energy (15%), microfinance (13%), and other financial services (11%).
• The impact investing market continues to grow and mature. Collectively, respondents manage USD 239 billion in impact investing assets (nearly half of the total impact investing market, as measured by assets under management). A subset of 80 investors that contributed to the Annual Survey both four years ago and this year grew their assets at a compound annual growth rate of nearly 17%--a signal that the market is not only growing through new investors entering the market, but also due to increasing assets under management from those already in the market.
• Impact measurement and management (IMM) is central to investors’ goals and practices. Respondents nearly universally measure and manage their impact, typically using a mix of qualitative information, proprietary metrics, and metrics aligned to IRIS or other standard frameworks. More than 60% of investors track their investment performance to the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals, driven by a desire to integrate into a global development agenda.
• Impact investors report performance in line with both financial and impact expectations. A clear majority of respondents indicated that their investments have met or exceeded their expectations for impact (98%) and financial (91%) performance. Respondents also reported their average gross realized returns since inception. The distribution of returns data suggests that fund and investment selection is key.
• Impact investors indicate a strong commitment to developing the industry. Investors largely recognize their role in contributing to broader field-building efforts and industry development. For example, over 80% of respondents indicated contributing toward the various actions recommended in the GIIN’s Roadmap for the Future of Impact Investing. Respondents further view the impact investing industry as playing a key role in driving broader shifts in investment practice by changing mindsets about the fundamental purpose of finance in society and promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion through their policies and practices.

About the GIIN
The Global Impact Investing Network (GIIN) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to increasing the scale and effectiveness of impact investing around the world. Impact investments are investments made into companies, organizations, and funds with the intention to generate social and environmental impact alongside a financial return. Impact investments can be made in both emerging and developed markets, and target a range of returns from below market to market rate, depending upon the circumstances. The GIIN builds critical infrastructure and supports activities, education, and research that help accelerate the development of a coherent impact investing industry.

Notes From Puerto Rico:

Hotel Villa Cofresí was the first hotel in Rincón and was the inspiration for other hotels, guest houses, and restaurants around the area. This has made Rincón one of the most popular vacation destinations in Puerto Rico and the Caribbean. It served the best Angus steaks, fresh seafood and Puerto Rican cuisine in the area.  In 1965, a young couple, Rubén and Rita Caro acquired Villa Cofresí.  In the year 1968, the World Surfing Tournament was celebrated in Rincón and we were fortunate to be here for the 50th year anniversary of that event. Back then, the Puerto Rico Tourism Company provided the owners of Villa Cofresí with incentives and the government gave them loans in order for them to built rooms for the surfers visiting Rincón from around the world. With this help, twelve additional rooms were built.

Well after the 50 year anniversary, Hotel Villa Cofresí remains the favorite among locals and internationals being number one in Trip Advisor. Since 1995, Rubén and Rita Caro’s children administer the hotel.

It’s extraordinary to me how much has changed in the decades since this early hotel came into existence.  Friends of ours who moved here even 20 years ago reminisce about how much has changed since they first arrived in Puerto Rico.  There was no Costco, Sam's Club, Target or Walmart, nor were any of the major fast food franchises here yet, not that those are necessarily signs of progress, but change none the less.

If you look back just a decade ago, the US national debt was $11.4 trillion. Ten years later the debt has nearly doubled to more than $22 trillion.

When expressed as a percentage of GDP, the US national debt has increased from 64% of GDP in 2009, to 105% today.

A decade ago the world was suffering through the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression; world economies were wrecked because central banks had printed too much money during the early 2000s, and kept interest rates far too low for far too long.

Yet over the past decade, we’ve seen central banks print even more money, conjuring trillions of dollars out of thin air and holding interest rates down to the lowest levels ever seen in the history of the world.

Several advanced economies, including the eurozone, Switzerland, Denmark, and Planet Japan, now actually have NEGATIVE interest rates.

You get the idea: the world is radically different than it was even just ten years ago and Puerto Rico suffered its own financial and environmental crisis along the way.

But because we spend our lives in a daily grind, slowly becoming accustomed to these changes, it’s hard to notice unless you step back and look at the big picture.

I hope to show why, in light of all kinds of reasons to lose hope, I remain ever-optimistic and ever more convinced that Food Sovereignty is key to our ultimate safety and self-sustainability.

As I write this update to you, I’m sitting by the window in my oceanfront, Caribbean beachside condo, staring down at the pool, across to the sandy beach and coconut trees and the lapping waves below.

I can’t help but think of all the turmoil this place has witnessed and yet here I am enjoying an amazing and peaceful experience in a tropical paradise.

This condo and the likes of Villa Cofresi and Puerto Rico, in general, has survived countless tropical storms, multiple hurricanes, financial crises, and even political corruption.

Despite all the challenges and stupidity thrust upon us, humanity pushes forward. It’s noteworthy that the average household in PR enjoys a more comfortable lifestyle than the prior generations could have dreamed about when the majority of the population was without power as a norm, not just a by-product of a hurricane outage. Puerto Rico's first electric lighting system began operations in 1893, but the first government-funded power plant wasn't built until 1908. To this point in the history of Puerto Rico up until the 1940's, electricity was essentially confined to urban areas, with just 12 percent of the rural population having access. The Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority was only formally organized in 1941, so many parts of the island existed without power in some places up until the 1970's.

And for the most part, it’s getting better.

There will always be bumps in the road ahead… and occasionally severe ones. I just want to be sensibly prepared for the journey no matter what terrain we may encounter.

As a final point, I truly want to express my sincerest gratitude to our Investors, Followers, Supporters, and Friends.

I co-founded this venture with Lisa with nothing but a laptop, the problem defined, the research to support the solution and an insatiable desire to make a contribution.

We cherish the relationships we’ve been able to develop-- with our team, with our IMPACT Investors and with our Followers and Supporters from around the globe.

Whether you’ve been part of this community from Day 1, or this is your first day, we are truly grateful for the honor of being entrusted with a part of your investment portfolio.

Hello!

This campaign will continue to accept investments until its indicated closing date.

Thanks for funding the future.

As parents of four amazing kids, Lisa and I are blessed to be parents and I am especially blessed to not only be a father, but now a grandfather two times over. Here is my grandson and this was the second Father's Day I was able to wish my son a Happy Father's Day.

Here is a picture of my granddaughter and this was the first year I got to tell my son-in-law Happy Father's Day!

The celebration of Father’s Day reminds us about both the importance and the challenges of fatherhood. Fathers don’t always enjoy the glow of intimacy and admiration we give our mothers. Indeed, fathers have the cultural image of breadwinner, disciplinarian, authority figure. When you were growing up, how often did you hear your mother say, “just wait until your father gets home!” Traditionally, our culture has often put fathers into a very difficult role. They must be aloof but intimate; must earn the wage, but be present; must be compassionate, but disciplinarian.

Often, fathers feel the burden of their responsibilities but are conditioned not to show it. That sometimes interferes with both their ability to express affection, and our ability to recognize it. Luckily, our culture is changing and more fathers are involved in parenting in a very direct and intimate way. Some fathers now take paternal leave when a child is born. They also understand the importance of play with their children in the evenings and on weekends.

Our understanding of what “family” means also is evolving. Some of us have had the pleasure of being a godfather or “father figure” to younger family members who may have lost their biological father. Many children grow up in single-parent homes with only a father or a mother. We have learned that it’s the love, care, and presence that define fatherhood.

So as we celebrate this special day, for that special person in our lives who we call father, remember that he may seem remote but likely is more close to you than you realize. He may be the definition of “tough love,” but it is love. Even if your dad, father or “old man” is grumpy, opinionated and distant, remember that more likely than not you are more important to him than you can imagine. So, if your dad is/was present/loving and showed it, then show it to him. 

In either case, embarrass dad with an abundance of attention, praise, and acknowledgment.

Happy Father's Day!

As part of our PRIDCO Solar Award, we are required to be certified in three (3) classes. We have previously shown our certificates for the PSA Course on Food Safety. So this past week we completed our second course and pleased to have attended that at the University of Puerto Rico - Mayaguez.

Here are the pictures of our certificates of participation in the Agriculture course in hydroponics made on 11 and 12 June 2019 in Mayaguez at the University of Puerto Rico.

Here are some additional pictures of our Hydroponics Course at UPR Mayaguez.

A GREAT OPPORTUNITY FOR PUERTO RICO INVESTMENT: Will you help us build a community of environmentally sensitive investors for Fusion Farms Puerto Rico? We have developed proprietary Aquaponic systems which will change Puerto Rico’s dependency on imported foodstuffs forever.

One of the reasons why Fusion Farms can be such an attractive investment is that it can potentially generate returns in three ways, simultaneously: through dividends, through stock appreciation and through deferment of capital gains tax.

What is the big deal about being a “Qualified Opportunity Zone Investment”?

If you have capital gains (from the sale of real estate, stocks, bonds, crypto, art etc,) you can invest Gains from the sale, to be rolled into an Opportunity Zone investment.  Investors only have to reinvest the gains instead of the entire proceeds from the sale of an asset to take advantage of the tax benefits.  By doing so, you defer paying capital gains on your original investment (normally 23.8%) for almost a decade.

We look forward to welcoming you to our growing list of IMPACT Investors!!!

In 1868, on the very first Decoration Day (now called Memorial Day), President James Garfield stood before an audience of 5,000 and paid tribute to the fallen heroes whose headstones, decorated with flowers, stood behind him as a testament to their sacrifice. He solemnly acknowledged:

For love of country they accepted death, and thus resolved all doubts, and made immortal their patriotism and their virtue.

Today, on this Memorial Day, you and I have the opportunity and duty to honor America's heroes, to recall their sacrifice and courage, and to pay our respects for the selflessness of their ultimate sacrifice. We owe each one a deep debt of gratitude.

Memorial Day, a day honoring those who died in active military service, is naturally important in Puerto Rico. Puerto Rico has sent more men and women into military service than most states:

• 18,000 in World War I
• 65,000 in World War II
• 61,000 in the Korean War
• 48,000 in the Vietnam War
• 10,000 in the Gulf War
• 38,000 deployments in Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom

More than 25,000 Puerto Ricans are currently in active service, and more than 8,400 are currently in the National Guard.

Puerto Rico’s proud tradition of military service also includes 70 years of U.S. military bases and more than a century of strategically significant placement for the defense of the United States.

Memorial Day is also a time when people also think about veterans.  More than 90,000 veterans live in Puerto Rico. More than 30 veterans’ service organizations are active in the territory. Over half of the residents of Puerto Rico have served for their country, or have family members who have done so.

I urge you to take time today to honor the memory and families of America's fallen heroes, "lest they be forgotten."

Speaking at Arlington National Cemetery on Memorial Day, 1982, President Ronald Reagan declared,

The United States and the freedom for which it stands, the freedom for which they died, must endure and prosper. Their lives remind us that freedom is not bought cheaply. It has a cost; it imposes a burden. And just as they whom we commemorate were willing to sacrifice, so too must we—in a less final, less heroic way—be willing to give of ourselves.

Our great land has been preserved and protected by countless brave men and women who have gone into harm's way to secure our freedom. From the Battle of Bunker Hill to the beaches of Normandy to sun-baked ISIS enclaves in Syria and Iraq, your freedom and mine has been purchased at the price of the blood of brave American patriots who died in battle.

America remembers these too often unsung heroes this Memorial Day.  Puerto Rico’s veterans and active service members, like their fellow military servicemen and women living in the states, fought to defend the core American values of democracy, justice, and equality. 

We cannot and must not take for granted their ultimate sacrifice.

Because of all these veterans, we enjoy religious freedom, the right to peaceably assemble, to vote and to raise our children in safety. These precious gifts have only come because of courageous men and women who laid down their lives in service to our nation.

Today, as we remember America's fallen heroes, I ask you to also pray for our active military personnel who are engaged in conflicts around the world or who are performing their assigned duties here at home.

God bless you, God bless America, God bless Puerto Rico and God bless our service men and women and their families!

Dear Friends, Followers, and Supporters,

We had a crazy day yesterday because we were told the Governor’s Press Conference had been postponed. I'm sure you were confused if you saw the LIVE Facebook stream that the event was taking place. We were just as surprised so here's what happened:

CLICK HERE TO WATCH THE FACEBOOK LIVE VIDEO

We decided to go to our building at 1:00 pm just to let people know who might not have gotten the notice. We were stunned when we saw the Governor’s team doing their security sweep and setting up for the Press Conference! They then told us they had decided to go forward without announcing our specific project and they were just going to announce PRIDCO awards to about 10 companies. Our rep, Anthony Cardona at PRIDCO worked tirelessly up to the last minute to get everything done for us but the clock ran out. We are so sorry everyone was not able to attend so the good news is, we will hold our ribbon cutting ceremony when the time is right!

Here is the good news:

•Governor Ricardo Rosselló Nevares came around 4:15 with Secretary Laboy and announced all the incentives for farmers promoting hydroponics and aquaponics

•Eng. Manuel A. Laboy Rivera is the Secretary of the Department of Economic Development and Commerce (DEDC) and Executive Director of the Puerto Rico Industrial Development Company (PRIDCO) so he spoke directly after the Governor about the incentives.  You can see our LIVE Facebook broadcast at https://www.facebook.com/kendell.lang/videos/10218095044943726/

•Approximately 185 people attended including many farmers from all over the island.

•We were able to pass out cards, introduce ourselves and hang our Fusion Farms banner.

•Fortunately, we were prepared with water and candy to hand out for the long, hot wait for the press conference to begin.

•We were recognized and awarded a letter signed by PRIDCO confirming our solar grant! We were presented our solar grant award letter at the Governor's podium and shook Governor Rosselló's hand, Secretary Laboy's hand, and the hand of Hon. Tania Vázquez Rivera, Secretary of DNER.

Here is the picture of the start of our Grant Award Letter:

Here is the rough translation:

Estimad@ senor@ Lang:

 It is with great pleasure that we announce that your company Fusion Farms has been selected as a recipient of the support funds of the Program to Support Planting of Hydroponics and Aquaponics (PASHA). The Campania de Fomento Industrial de Puerto Rico (PRIDCO) in conjunction with the Department of Economic Development and Trade (DDEC) is grateful for its participation in this economic development effort where re-establishing and expanding hydroponic farming operations will allow the substitution of excessive imports. that are currently carried out in Puerto Rico. After the evaluation of its project, the Campania de Fomento Industrial approved the amount of $ 250,000 in incentives to promote the expansion of its operations.

We will have a do-over where the Governor has graciously agreed to come for our first harvest, so we’ll have another shot at doing this event the right way. We learned that the next time, we would like to have more to show than an empty building. We are more motivated than ever to grow good food for good people. The generosity and encouragement from everyone on the island has been humbling and inspiring.  God’s timing is always perfect and we just took the lemons we were given yesterday and made lemonade!

Thank you for your continued support!!!

We have been contacted by the Governor’s office who has to postpone our ribbon cutting ceremony to a later date. We apologize for any inconvenience and look forward to giving you an updated day and time when the Governor can reschedule for the ceremony.

We hope you will be able to attend the event on the new date!

We are pleased to announce that Governor Ricardo Rosselló Nevares is scheduled to come to the Fusion Farms facility in Mayagüez on Tuesday, May 21 at 2:00 pm. He will be doing a site visit, tour of the building, presentation and Ribbon Cutting Ceremony. Also in attendance will be the Secretary of the Department of Economic Development and Commerce who will be discussing that they have delivered around $9 million USD between the Programa de Hidroponicos and Pymes Innovadoras, the way they drive the agriculture and innovation industry. Fusion Farms is proud to be the first example of what the Department of Economic Development is incentivizing for innovative agriculture solutions, specifically our Hurricane-Protected Aquaponic Vertical Farm! We look forward to welcoming you to this exciting Ribbon Cutting Ceremony.  For any of you who are able to attend, please make sure to click on "Reserve" after selecting "Number of Spots" in order to make sure you get on the VIP List!!!

Governor Ricardo Rosselló - Fusion Farms Ribbon Cutting Ceremony

Our role as owners of this project is to orchestrate the cast of contributors into a well-oiled engine which has the best chance of getting us over the finish line. The contributions which Lisa and I make are those of leadership, organization, project planning, decades of entrepreneurship, decades of fundraising, complex project management, government relations, contract negotiations, marketing, public relations, conflict resolution and people/hiring/relationship management. Lisa and I are definitely followers of the Lee Iacocca school of thought where he said, "I hire people brighter than me and I get out of their way." We have a canvass on which the artistry of our team members can paint an amazing story, so our job is to gather the right team members to be a part of an amazing group of artists who are each contributing something to the canvass. You can see our amazing team at Fusion Farms Team, including our strategic partnership with the University of Puerto Rico Mayagüez.

Hello!

As you might know, Fusion Farms has exceeded its minimum funding goal. When a company reaches its minimum on StartEngine, it's about to begin withdrawing funds. If you invested in Fusion Farms be on the lookout for an email that describes more about the disbursement process.

This campaign will continue to accept investments until its indicated closing date.

Thanks for funding the future.

-StartEngine

Hello Everyone,

We are so happy to announce that we successfully completed Phase I ($107K) of our Online Public Offering and were OVER-SUBSCRIBED beyond the $106,640 amount authorized in Phase I.  The Compliance Team at Startengine has reviewed and approved our CPA reviewed financials, so that means is that we have now been authorized to commence Phase II ($1M) of our Online Public Offering and Startengine has notified everyone that they have filed an amended SEC filing so we now have another 64 days to raise a total of $1,075,000.00 of which we have raised just over $118,000 now.

This campaign has been incredible - it has not just raised capital from people who care about green, clean, hurricane-protected, aquaponic sustainable agriculture and want to do something about it, but also connected us with people all around the US and beyond (we have attracted investors not only from 26 US states and Puerto Rico, but from Switzerland, Chile, Australia, Singapore and India so far).

We want to share some quick facts about our Campaign. We have had 197 prospective investors who Clicked the Invest Button. Of those, we have had 66 investors make 72 investments for a total of just over $118K as of today.  We also have 141 Startengine Campaign Followers.  What that means is that we have 131 of you receiving this email who are sitting on the fence.

We'd like to invite you to join as an IMPACT INVESTOR in our Campaign to help us finalize our efforts to build out our Hurricane-Protected Aquaponic Vertical Farm in Puerto Rico. Making an investment in Aquaponics will help make Puerto Rico the poster-child for agricultural food sovereignty!

While we've completely sold out through the early adopters and fast movers on Phase I, we don't want you to miss out on Phase II.  We don't want you to say, "Dang, we should have bought into Fusion Farms!" so we don't want you to miss out on Phase II.

Please visit https://www.startengine.com/fusionfarms and we hope to include you in our growing list of Investors! We also appreciate the likes, shares, comments and great words of encouragement so thank you for that as well!

Lisa and I were able to attend the "Puerto Rico is Open For Green Business" Summit at the San Juan Convention Center today (https://www.greenbusinesspr.com/), so it was exciting to hear all the opportunities Puerto Rico has to turn around the devastation from Hurricane Maria to an opportunity to set a new course for the Island.

You can always check our progress on the Fusion Farms Website and we're excited that our story has been covered in over 140 media outlets (Fox, ABC, CBS, NBC, CW, Telemundo, and numerous radio and print publications!!!) so you can see those at https://www.fusionfarmspr.com/press-releases/.

As you will see on our Campaign Page, On April 17, 2019, Fusion Properties Managment Group, Inc. (d/b/a Fusion Farms) filed an amendment increasing the authorized shares of Common Stock of the Company from 20,000 to 860,000.  At the same time, the Company effected a 43:1 stock split, increasing the pre-offering shares outstanding from 10,000 to 430,000.  

All shares issued in this Offering at $430 per share prior to April 17th were included in the stock split, and as a result of the stock split, will own 43 shares of common stock for each share purchased prior to the amendment, resulting in the same percentage of ownership of the Company.

All shares sold in the offering subsequent to the amendment will be sold at a price per share of $10.  

The pre-money valuation of $4,300,000 has not been affected by this corporate action.

Please let us know if you have any questions and again, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your support. We are humbled and appreciative of all the investors who have gotten us to this point!

Best personal regards,

Kendell & Lisa

[The following is an automated notice from the StartEngine team].

Hello! Recently, a change was made to the Fusion Farms offering. Here's an excerpt describing the specifics of the change:

Issuer is updating price per share, extending end date of financials, and increasing the max funding goal.

When live offerings undergo changes like these on StartEngine, the SEC requires that certain investments be reconfirmed. If your investment requires reconfirmation, you will be contacted by StartEngine via email with further instructions.

Hi Kendell,

Congratulations! Fusion Farms has exceeded its maximum funding goal of $106,640.00 and is now oversubscribed.

Congrats again on your success! If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to Hello@StartEngine.com.

All the best,

The StartEngine Team

Hey everyone!

There were supposed to be just a few more hours until the end of this phase of our campaign. We were all positioned to announce that we had exceeded our goal, which technically we have, but technology is not cooperating with us. You may have seen that our Campaign was extended and now has 6 days left.  Startengine made a decision to extend this phase of our Campaign so they could work out some technical issues.  

Our Form C filing with the SEC shows that we are authorized for handling Over-subscriptions in Phase I (the $107K Offering), but they misconfigured their system and aren't allowing our Campaign to be oversubscribed. They are saying we technically only have one (1) share left, so someone trying to buy more than 1 share is being rejected. :( I'm so sorry to those of you frustrated with us about this and we appreciate your patience!

We have investors trying to purchase multiple shares that would put us over the top of the $107K, but they are being put on a waiting list (my deepest apologies to those of you trying to buy on our published last day) until we can get this resolved.  They hope to have this squared away before the end of the month (thus the 6-day extension), so we'll do a general update on this once we have the details. Please be assured, if you are on the waiting list, we will get this fixed and give you the opportunity to complete your share purchase.

Nonetheless, we are calling SUCCESS for today!!!

Time flies when you’re having fun, and doing something meaningful, with the potential of having a big impact! So, despite these minor setbacks, we still want to THANK YOU all for your support, your likes, your shares, your comments, and your investments!

This campaign has been incredible - it has not just raised capital from people who care about green, clean, hurricane-protected, aquaponic sustainable agriculture and want to do something about it, but also connected us with people all around the US and beyond (we have attracted investors not only from 26 US states and Puerto Rico, but from Switzerland, Chile, Australia, Singapore and India so far).

Stay tuned for an announcement of our expansion financing commitment for our next buildings beyond Mayagüez coming soon, as well as our surprise ceremony coming with a visit from the Governor!

All our best,

Kendell & Lisa

I’m not used to seeing the government offer taxpayers a win/win.

But a little known provision snuck into Trump’s 2017 tax reform law is possibly the best tax-advantaged investment strategy offered in decades. And it will help some of the poorest areas of the US too.

It’s the brainchild of Sean Parker, the founder of Napster and the first major investor in Facebook.

Traveling in Tanzania, he realized none of the $2 billion worth of aid flowing into the country each year reached certain poor areas.

And he noticed something similar about the US, in the poor neighborhoods of San Francisco.

Here all his Silicon Valley buddies were sitting on record high gains in almost every asset class after a decade bull run. But they had no incentive to collect their gains, and invest them in the areas that needed it most.

The solution was Opportunity Zones.

It’s a win-win scenario. You get an amazing tax deal, while helping to solve the income disparity in the US.

The legislation allowed states to designate “Opportunity Zones” in almost 9,000 distressed communities across the USA. These are areas with high poverty and unemployment. What many investors have overlooked is that virtually all of Puerto Rico has been classified as an Opportunity Zone!

Here’s how this opportunity works…

1. You sell your asset, and realize an initial capital gain (from stocks, bonds, crypto, real estate, gold, art or most anything else).

2. Within 180 days, you invest some or all of your gains into a Qualified Opportunity Zone Fund, like Fusion Farms :).

3. You defer paying tax on the initial capital gain until Dec 31, 2026. If you’ve held it for seven years, you get a 15% discount on that tax.

(Tax deferral allows you to delay paying taxes so your money can compound at a substantially higher rate.)

4. The Opportunity Zone Fund invests in a Qualified Opportunity Zone Investment (it can buy an existing business, start a new business or even buy real estate).

5. If you hold that investment for 10 years, any capital gains you earn from the Opportunity Zone Fund are TAX-FREE.

The rules are simple, and the funds are flexible.

But there will never be a better time than now to take advantage of Opportunity Zones.

The first reason is simple math. You can only defer the capital gains tax until December 31, 2026.

That’s just seven years away, and you need to hold the Opportunity Zone investment for seven years to get the full 15% discount on your original capital gains tax. That means you need to realize and re-invest your gains by the end of 2019.

You’ll still get a 10% discount on your original capital gains tax if you hold the new investment for five years. So, in theory, you could take advantage of that up until the end of 2021…

Don't miss your Opportunity Zone...be an IMPACT INVESTOR in Fusion Farms!

We don't measure our day by the harvest we reap but by the seeds of hope that we plant. 

As with most technology platforms, even Amazon and Google have had downtime with their websites and various software platforms, so we've copied below our most recent communication with the Tech Team at Startengine.com regarding our inability to respond to comments on the Startengine platform:

We are very serious about responding to comments and normally do so within hours of the postings, but we have been unable to respond to Alan DeRossett based on the software glitch inside Startengine.com, so we're sending out this update with the following message for Alan:

Hello Alan,

Your kind words are greatly appreciated and we're excited with the momentum we've got going!

We would love to welcome you into this round and you've got until next Wednesday, April 24th to invest. For clarity, this is our only anticipated equity offering as all our future funding is projected to be done through loan and debt instruments.
No pressure, and we'd love to have you invest in this round, but understand if there's not enough time for you to review this.  We just want to make sure you understand that we're not going to be doing a "next" round.

That said, whatever you decide we sincerely appreciate you taking a look at our opportunity.

Best regards,

Kendell

The Little Engine That Could is an American fairytale that became widely known in the United States, maybe elsewhere too? The story is used to teach children the value of optimism and hard work.

Thank you to all of you who have jumped in to become #IMPACTINVESTORS and who have brought is to Rank #22 on Startengine!!! We are blown away with your support of #FusionFarmsand we couldn't be here without you!

FUND DISBURSEMENT

As you might know, Fusion Farms has exceeded its minimum funding goal thanks to investors like you. When a company reaches its minimum on StartEngine, it's able to begin withdrawing funds-- this is one of the last steps to finalizing investments.

Fusion Farms has begun this "Funds Withdrawal" process and your investment will be part of this!

The company will withdraw funds on 2019-04-24 and you will have until 2019-04-20 to cancel your investment.

After the Funds Withdrawal is complete, you will receive your countersigned subscription agreement, along with a ceremonial stock certificate. You can check your investment status by logging into your StartEngine account and clicking your name in the top right corner, then "View My Investments" or by going to your Investor Dashboard here.

If you have questions about your investment, please contact us at Contact@StartEngine.com.

This campaign will continue to accept investments until its indicated closing date.

SOCIAL MEDIA CONNECTIONS

We started this company with one goal: to bring more hurricane-protected, healthy, and delicious leafy greens to the people of Puerto Rico. Your investment will help us do just that. After hitting our minimum campaign goal, we’re going to be able to start our Pilot Project production in our warehouse, get our initial crop growing, get to our initial harvest, and reach more customers.

Please help us spread the word on our Fusion Farms Campaign by sending a note to your friends, family, and fellow investors, and by sharing the campaign on social media. We’ll be keeping you in the loop with monthly investor emails and Campaign updates.

Make things better by making an IMPACT. "Doing Well By Doing Good!"

Everything in the world we now enjoy is that which we have inherited from our forefathers – the water we drink, the food we eat, the place we live – if it’s good, it’s good because someone, a generation or more ago, decided to make it better. And if it’s not good, or needs renovation or a new solution, only our action is going to make it better.

We have seen the world around us, we see the opportunity to make it better and if we try and be IMPACT players, we can see it becoming better. We are visualizing a better food source and #FoodSovereignty for Puerto Rico and our plan is to make it better. One small step in that direction is becoming Certified under the new Food Safety Modernization Act (FMSA). Both Lisa and I are now certified, so here's one certificate:

Your view of making an IMPACT might be different. It might be a podcast or a political campaign, an engineering insight or a contribution to a cause. It probably involves finding and organizing others on a similar path. It definitely takes guts and perseverance.

It is our belief that we each have a chance to make an IMPACT. To announce our vision, to propose a change, to do the hard work to make things better.

It’s on us, right now. Will you join us?

Make things better by choosing to make an IMPACT!

As #FusionFarm’s #EquityCrowdfunding Campaign continues towards our fundraising goal, we have 15 days until our campaign is complete. Your support has allowed us to dream big at Fusion Farms. Would you consider investing in our Campaign to help us finalize our efforts to build out a #HurricaneProtected #Aquaponics #VerticalFarm in #PuertoRico? Investments in #Aquaponics will make Puerto Rico the poster-child for agricultural #foodsovereignty!

Hello Fusion Farm Followers, Friends, and Investors,


We want to make sure you saw this unique investment opportunity to invest alongside us and be an equity owner in our Pilot Project building located in Mayagüez, Puerto Rico totaling 11,500 square feet on 1.45 acres.

This investment opportunity includes an existing concrete warehouse building in Mayagüez which we will be converting to a Hurricane-Protected Aquaponics Vertical Farm.

This property is in a very good location, being leased at a below-market price and projected to bring in good overall returns for all investor owners.

We will be holding an informational webinar about this investment opportunity for all potential investors interested in being an equity owner with us in this property.

 On the webinar, Lisa and I will go through and discuss the underwriting, the projected returns, and the experienced team we have assembled to execute the business plan.

The one-time informational webinar will be held on Tuesday, April 23rd at 1:00 PM Eastern / 10:00 AM Pacific time.

Register For The Webinar


If you are interested in learning more and potentially being one of the equity investor owners with us in this business then I would highly recommend you join Lisa and me on the webinar.

For the past 2 days, we have attended a certification program on Food Safety. The information is vital to the health of a farm as well as the consumers who benefit from what the farm produces.

Much of the emphasis is on traditional farming and all of the potential contamination events that can happen in the field and post-harvest in spite of best efforts. The soil, the water to irrigate the vegetation and even the process to wash the produce can provide a perfect environment for pathogens to take hold. With the expanse of so many traditional farms along with the rate at which bacteria, viruses, and pests can multiply, it is an ongoing battle that keeps farmers working around the clock.

The beauty of your investment in Fusion Farms and indoor vertical farming is that you can control the environment in a way that minimizes the risk and produces consistency and predictability in an otherwise random industry. The water can be tested, filtered, naturally enhanced with nutrients, and even cooled to ensure success; something that would be impossible on a 100-acre farm. In hydroponics and aquaponics, the roots are not grown in soil but in water where the nutrients flow evenly reaching every part of the root structure evenly on each and every plant.

Growing in soil is another matter. Vegetation planted in the soil is only as good as what the roots come in contact with. If there is nutrient depletion, mold spores or an underground pest, it will be extremely difficult to identify and prevent damage or crop loss.

Outbreaks of E. coli, Salmonella and other pathogens have increased as risk factors in traditional farming and the need for food safety becoming more critical. Unfortunately, some of the efforts to eliminate the risks have caused more than their fair share of consequences, thanks to GMO’s and pesticides (which is a post for another time.)

That is precisely why hydroponics and aquaponics are becoming a focal point for the future of agriculture. Consumers are more educated and they are paying more attention to the “condition” their food is in when it hits their dinner plates.

People are starting to care where their food is coming from and the influence under which it is grown. Consumers are starting to embrace the concept that local food is better for you – whether traditionally grown or hydroponically. What is important to realize, however, is what the food was exposed to (locally or not) from seed to harvest and beyond.

Food safety is a big responsibility for all farmers. But to what end will farmers go to make sure their produce is safe? Best practices are not always the cheapest; indoor vertical farming is costly up front but the results and long-term benefits are far more consistent and nutritious than what can be achieved outdoors, in most cases. Outdoor organic farmers face far more stringent regulations and practices, not to mention the cost involved. It is not an easy business.

Your investment in Fusion Farms is a progressive bet that Controlled Environment Agriculture will change the way we grow, distribute and eat meals that come from sustainable, healthy, chemical-free, non-GMO produce with a low carbon footprint.  

Now THAT’s a happy meal!

The #Aquaponics equity #crowdfunding #FusionFarms campaign has raised $31,390 and is now ranked #36 on the homepage of StartEngine! Thanks to all our investors who have gotten us to this benchmark and we're looking forward to climbing up the page! #HurricaneProtected #verticalfarm cannot be destroyed like traditional #agriculture. Fusion Farms is engineering a method for organic vertical #aquaponics to survive and thrive even in the face of catastrophic Puerto Rican weather events like Hurricane Maria. Visit the Fusion Farms investment strategies page to learn more and invest! https://www.startengine.com/fusionfarms.

Please go to https://www.startengine.com/fusionfarms to evaluate what we are doing in Puerto Rico and why we moved here! We appreciate in advance your consideration of partnering with us on this important project.

My wife Lisa and I had been in escrow back in mid-2017 to purchase a 37-acre tropical fruit farm in Las Marias in the western part of Puerto Rico up in the mountains. The property was in two lots, both part of an inheritance situation. We could not get ownership or easement to the lot which gave primary road access to the main property, so we canceled escrow which occurred 10 days before Hurricane Maria.

Of course, Hurricane Maria put Puerto Rico squarely on the map September 19, 2017, in terms of natural disaster and humanitarian relief. The general public doesn't realize that 80% of farms were destroyed by Hurricane Maria, just one of two devastating hurricanes where recovery still continues. The devastation to the island, the people and the farms crystalized the need for us to implement hurricane-protected vertical farming.

Although we had explored buying farms in Costa Rica, Chile, and Italy, after having spent two 30-day trips to Puerto Rico prior to Hurricane Maria and two trips post-hurricane, we made our decision and moved to Puerto Rico last November. We are now Rincónians! This was in large part because of the acceptance of our proposal to renovate an empty building owned by the Puerto Rico Industrial Development Company (PRIDCO).

We formed Fusion Farms (a Puerto Rico corporation), which is designed as a Controlled Environment Aquaponics or CEA facility for sustainable, renewable, energy efficient indoor growing of organic food in hurricane-protected buildings.

You can see our website at https://www.FusionFarmsPR.com and our introductory video at https://vimeo.com/309160606. 

Take a look at the warehouse building photos at https://drive.google.com/open?id=1-Up8f1kZblx73t2tw0Wq_kvb8jm-nC7h. 

We have a variety of drone videos of the property which you can see at https://drive.google.com/open?id=1-yPAqxZ982NzjkhUcPNDl_9a1W5skPcW. 

Our plan has been thoroughly reviewed and accepted by PRIDCO. We have secured a 10-year lease on an empty, concrete building which is 11,500 square feet located in the Guanajibo Industrial Park in Mayaguez. 

We have several key strategic partners to help us prove that indoor growing of vegetables and supported by outdoor fish is an economically viable aquaponic solution.

You will be pleased to learn more about some of our strategic partners from the University of Puerto Rico - Mayagüez, so you can see their BIO's at https://www.fusionfarmspr.com/university-of-puerto-rico-mayaguez/. We are also blessed to have the Casas brothers, Jorge and Pedro on our team. You can read about Jorge at https://www.fusionfarmspr.com/agroponicas-operational-farm-design-consultant/and his brother Pedro is now part of the team at Santa Fe Community College in New Mexico so you can read more about him and his professor, Charlie Shultz at https://www.fusionfarmspr.com/santa-fe-community-college-new-mexico/. 

Once we prove out the Pilot Program in our first facility in Mayagüez, it can be quickly and efficiently scaled to provide a major impact on Puerto Rico economic development by repeating the solution in many other empty buildings across the Island.

Please let us know if you have any questions about our plan and we welcome the opportunity to talk with you. We also have a Subscription Document and Offering Prospectus if you are interested in knowing the details about investing in Fusion Farms.

Best personal regards,

P.S. Would you be able to help us get over the $50k mark?

One share is one vote in support of our project. We appreciate in advance and every sale of one share matters!

Today's update is coming from me, Lisa Jander, a Co-Founder of Fusion Farms.

Fusion Farms in Puerto Rico has been a wild ride since we moved here in November 2018. Though the milestone numbers are not real ;) – they feel real. They represent the thousands of big and small victories we have accomplished over the past 5 months – too many to count.

The CEO, Co-Founder, and my husband, Kendell, has worked tirelessly through the maze and mountain of paperwork needed to comply with the USDA, FSA, PRIDCO, and all the other government agencies requirements to move our project forward. He's also been doing our Investor Updates, so today he gets a break! Not only that, but he's been building relationships, educating and negotiating with lenders and has been really excited about the way Oriental Bank has stepped up.

If you have ever been exposed to grant writing or commercial loan applications, you know it’s not easy.  Even harder is the equity fundraising for a startup project the size of ours, as you can imagine.

So, today was HUGE and I am proud to give a big shout out to my husband!

Milestone Victory #4,783

To lay the groundwork, it is important to understand a few things:

• Most of the meetings have taken place in San Juan (2.5-hour drive) or high up into the mountains for meetings, workshops, and face-to-face conversations, often on very short notice.
• Hundreds, if not thousands of hours researching the uncharted path necessary to achieve our goal
• Puerto Rico runs on island time
• And the biggest barrier of all…we do not speak Spanish!

Now that you have a better framework of what keeps us busy, imagine our excitement when just this morning, Kendell was presented with a Conditional Commitment Letter for a Loan from Oriental Bank in the amount of $1,500,000! Is that not a HUGE accomplishment?! Not only that, but the USDA has confirmed with Oriental Bank that they will be providing a Federal Loan Guarantee on the loan up to 80%!

This success is not only monumental for the continued momentum of the project, but it is also a key piece in the REAP grant application and scoring process (a competitive process, so we want to score higher than other applicants!), which leads me to…

Milestone Victory #4,784

REAP stands for the Rural Energy for America Program (REAP), which provides grants and loans to farmers and businesses for renewable energy and energy efficiency improvements and purchase of wind, solar or other renewable energy systems.  It also provides grants to help farmers with energy audits and renewable energy development. And the amounts are significant – so is the work involved to apply for the grant.

I have watched Kendell plow through piles of paperwork and ink cartridges to assemble the REAP Grant Application which is due by April 1, 2019. This is a critical piece for our solar project funding and will give us 25% of our budget needed for renewable energy.  This is equivalent to $153,250 so getting the grant application completed was a key step in our overall financial feasibility.

I am proud to say, Kendell is currently at FedEx shipping the 243-page application in 2-inch binders to the USDA overnight as we speak!

Success comes in different forms. Today marked the success of 2 extremely important accomplishments for Fusion Farms. We are so grateful for the support of our friends, family, investors and those who have recently joined us on this journey. 

We invite others to join us and become part of the Fusion Farms Family by owning a piece of the Company.

Our Offering is closing in 27 days and with the financing we now have in place, it takes a big chunk of the capital needed (and the risk) out of the way. That said, we are still very committed to inviting new investors to help us grow our project from the ground up!

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts and we are excited to see what tomorrow brings!

All my best,

Lisa

[The following is an automated notice from the StartEngine team].

Hello!

As you might know, Fusion Farms has exceeded its minimum funding goal. When a company reaches its minimum on StartEngine, it's about to begin withdrawing funds. If you invested in Fusion Farms be on the lookout for an email that describes more about the disbursement process.

This campaign will continue to accept investments until its indicated closing date.

Thanks for funding the future.

-StartEngine

Both Lisa and I want to personally reach out and thank you for supporting Fusion Farms. The world just got a little (leafy) greener because of you.

We started this company with one goal: to bring more hurricane-protected, healthy, and delicious leafy greens to the people of Puerto Rico. Your investment will help us do just that. After hitting our minimum campaign goal, we’re going to be able to start our Pilot Project production in our warehouse, get our initial crop growing, get to our initial harvest, and reach more customers.

Please help us spread the word on our Fusion Farms Campaign by sending a note to your friends, family, and fellow investors, and by sharing the campaign on social media. We’ll be keeping you in the loop with monthly investor emails and Campaign updates.

Depending on which social media site(s) you prefer, we certainly appreciate if you would consider connecting with us at:

Co-Founders
Fusion Farms

We are really grateful for the Community of supporters and investors who have rallied around the Fusion Farms vision!

We want to give you a few comments from folks who have allowed us to share their kind words:

"Once I start making sales I will be able to join in for a share. I am literally broke at the moment. No need to sugar coat it. I pray for Fusion Farms daily. I know this is the best for the Island. I will be spreading the word" ~Henry S.

"Lisa and Ken,
Thanks so much for what you are doing AND for the info you shared today at the meeting.  My husband & I are the ones who spoke with you afterward from New Mexico.  We wish we could invest thousands, but humble retired educators/social workers typically aren't in that ballpark, but I think we are going to be able to purchase two shares.  We would love to have a conversation in the future to discuss how we can help you.  This is part of our reason for being in PR and what you are doing is exactly what we are interested in."  ~Dawn P. 

"Hello! And, greetings from Southern Maryland! I am developing a business plan for a local aquaponics farm. We want year-round access to local foods. This will be a co-op with the community. Please help in any way! Testimonials and guides are fantastic. Sponsorship is definitely welcomed. My desired request is assistance in bringing healthy foods to my community and work to reduce at-risk individuals. I don’t have a lot of money, but I do have time! I am a research biologist and would love to help create standard operating protocols for your aquaponics systems. Having a basic fundamental working procedure provides great access to expanding your endeavors. Please contact me further, I am happy to contribute!" ~Blake G.

The Community of people who are interested in Fusion Farms wasn’t invented by Kendell and Lisa. They may temporarily be organized by us, introduced to each other (and new ideas) by us and hopefully challenged by us. But, as the world changes, the community obviously has other places to meet their interest in this movement in addition to Fusion Farms. That is part of the educations and inspiration we are hoping to encourage in our Community.

The Community of people who are following Fusion Farms may not always be aligned with us, personally. Instead, they’re aligned with each other, with the way it feels to be part of this movement. We will have considered our venture a success if you have been moved or challenged to pursue this idea.

The Community of people who are apart of the Fusion Farms following are into food sovereignty and sustainable, renewable energy in support of non-GMO, non-chemical Aquaponics. But if Puerto Rico Food Sovereignty gets solved and the current Food Crisis Issues went away, the Community wouldn’t disappear. When Fusion Farms produced a solution for the Puerto Rico Community, that’s precisely what we did. Doing it for the Community. Most folks looking in from the periphery might wonder what it’s for, or hesitate at the price of investing, but for those in the heart of the community, it’s a no-brainer, right here and right now.

We appreciate being the custodians of this amazing Community for the time we have been given, thank you!

Dear Investors and Supporters of Fusion Farms,

As you know, we have been working hard to launch Fusion Farms in Puerto Rico to help the island move toward Food Sovereignty. We have been promoting our project through many sources, one of which is Start Engine where you expressed your commitment.

We thought it would be a good time to share the current status and what our plans are to move forward at this time.

The way that StartEngine works is that a minimum funding goal had to be achieved before we can advance. Thanks to all of you we achieved and exceeded that goal!

Below is a brief explanation of additional goals and how that works and how you are supporting our progress!

1. First, the Startengine platform requires that we raise 107k before we can increase our offering to the full amount of the maximum Reg C Offering which is $1,075,000. We currently have 29 days left and have raised $25,370, so thank you for helping us achieve this level of investment!  Please forward our Fusion Farms Campaign Page to your contacts to make sure they don't miss out before our campaign closes!

2. Second, we are excited to announce that we have an incremental Pilot Project plan based on a $10,000 +/- budget that will allow us to construct a small pilot project and allow us to prove that we can grow plants inside our building. That does several things; a) it allows us to start growing very quickly, b) it allows us to distribute limited product to key customers, and c) it gives us the ability be in operations mode, not just startup mode.

3. We promised each of you that before we ask Startengine to disburse funds at this stage, we are reaching out to all the investors to let you know about this strategy and that we are going to ask Startengine to collect and release the money that has been pledged to date.

4. The opportunity to get our Pilot Project going is an awesome next step for us, so once the funds have been released, we will be able to start production! From the time we construct our rack system and put seeds in our sprout trays, we can get to our first harvest in 21 to 28 days!

We are excited about the momentum we are building and have some fantastic interest and commitments from restaurants and distributors once we have the products to sell! We are in negotiations with a MAJOR brand name on a pre-purchase agreement that we hope to secure in the coming weeks.

Thank you in advance for your support and if there is anything you need from us to solidify your commitment, please feel free to reach out; we are happy to answer any questions! Thanks for believing in Fusion Farms!

Please be sure to connect with Start Engine to finalize your share purchase!

We had previously posted some "Before-and-After" photos of our 11,500 square foot building in Mayagüez, Puerto Rico, but it was at the end of an Update and not sure the impact came through, so we are resending this as its own update.  This is the kind of transformation we are excited to be taking a part in changing the economic baseline and giving this Island nation "Food Sovereignty". 

Thank you to all of you who have completed our Campaign Survey!

Here is an additional question which came up as part of that:

QUESTION: I believe you would get more investors here if the shares per investment were greater. For example, I invested $1290 for just 3 shares in your company and for Atlis motor I invested $609 for 2,100 shares. Visually it seems like I’m better off investing all much money with Atlis. Not sure if this is making sense but most can’t afford more shares with your company.

ANSWER: In our current offering, we have 2,500 shares to sell out of 20,000 shares authorized with 10,000 issued and outstanding. The valuation of the company is published at $4,300,000 so we are currently intending to sell 248 shares and complete our first raise of $107,000 and then file an amendment to increase the offering to the whole 2,500 shares @ $430 per share and raising a total of $1,075,000.

What we are discussing doing is complete a stock split which will end up putting our per share price at $10 per share, or less. This means we need to split the stock in order to end up with 430,000 issued and outstanding shares (or 860,000 total authorized). This calculates out to a 43:1 stock split, so for all 20,000 shares authorized, they split 43:1 thereby giving us authorized total shares of 860,000.

This would get our price per share down to $10 per share, but this represents a "Material Change" and will have to be submitted to the SEC along with updates to all our corporate materials. This would also mean going back to all existing investors and getting their approval for this change. We are considering doing that for exactly the reasons you point out, but this will take time to implement so we will keep you posted with our progress. Thanks for your feedback and thanks for investing!

If you haven't had a chance to take the Survey, it's a simple six (6) question survey that we promise won't take you more than two (2) minutes to complete.  Just CLICK HERE to go to the Survey and thanks in advance for helping us get this important feedback!

Thank you to all of you who have completed our Campaign Survey!

We thought we'd share a couple of the questions which came up as part of that:

QUESTION: How much will go towards educating the people here about how to be self-sustainable? How affordable is this compared to old fashioned farming?

ANSWER: A portion of our operating budget includes the partnerships we have with both the University of Puerto Rico - Mayagüez, as well as with the University of Arizona. We will be hosting training classes for schools and community outreach where we will be showing anyone interested in learning how to do variations of what we are implementing at home and on smaller-scale personal projects. In terms of affordability, the question we are really answering is how can you afford to build a farm that is not protected from the next Hurricane???

QUESTION: You talked about expansions, are our shared part of the expansions or are u going to put out another offer. How are we updated on the development of the build-out and production start?

ANSWER: As a shareholder, you will receive regular updates from the Company via a variety of sources, such as our website, email, social media and the more formal Company updates which will be sent monthly to investors via email. The beauty of buying in now is that you become a shareholder in all current and future operations of Fusion Farms, so you will benefit from all expansion and all future projects. We are not planning on doing any additional equity capital raises because we believe the profits will allow us to grow organically and we will have commercial lending sources to finance future growth.

If you haven't had a chance to take the Survey, it's a simple six (6) question survey that we promise won't take you more than two (2) minutes to complete.  Just CLICK HERE to go to the Survey and thanks in advance for helping us get this important feedback!

FUSION FARMS SURVEY

We are very interested in learning how you first discovered Fusion Farms.

It would help us tremendously if you would be so kind and take two (2) minutes of your time to answer six (6) short and easy questions.

Fusion Farms 2 Minute Survey

We appreciate in advance your consideration of this request and your feedback will help us make sure our message is on track and that we are reaching the right people in the right places!

CREDIT CARD UPDATE

We also want to let you know about an exciting update to StartEngine's platform. You can now invest up to $10,000 via credit card in the Fusion Farms offering on StartEngine. Previously, credit card investment amounts were capped at $2,000. We are excited to enable our investors and give them greater flexibility in how they invest in Fusion Farms on StartEngine's platform.

FUSION FARMS WEBINAR

We previously held a Webinar and had a tremendous response to that, so if you'd like to participate in our next Webinar, please email us at CEO@FusionFarmsPR.com and we'll make sure you get on the invite list.

FUSION FARMS BUILDING TOUR

If you happen to be in Puerto Rico and would like to come by and visit our building in Mayagüez, please send us an email at CEO@FusionFarmsPR.com and we'll be glad to arrange a personal walk-thru. We hosted our first building tour last week for the International Friendship Club after presenting to about 60 of their members, so it was really great to have our first "Neighbors" tour our building. Below is one photo inside our building with the group and the second photo is at the front entrance to our building.

PUERTO RICO RURAL INVESTMENT SUMMIT

National Rural Lender's Roundtable

This past Thursday and Friday we were invited to attend the Puerto Rico Rural Investment Summit hosted by the National Rural Lender's Roundtable at the San Juan Condado Plaza Hilton.  Our invitation was thanks to Michelle Torres, our representative from the USDA, so a big shoutout to Michelle for making sure we attended this event! Great meetings with the leadership from the SBA, USDA, various Secretaries of Departments of the Government of #PuertoRico and a number of lenders including Thomas USAF Group, Touchmark National Bank, Live Oak Bank, and #OrientalBank. Some incredible loan guarantee programs on the government incentive side, combined with lenders who are really excited about what #FusionFarms is doing with our #HurricaneProtected #Aquaponic #VerticalFarm!

We had a great conversation with Secretary Manuel A. Laboy Rivera, Eng. who heads the Department of Economic Development and Commerce for Governor Ricardo Antonio Rosselló Nevares Administration, pictured below, will be visiting our facility in Mayagüez in the coming months!!! Very excited to be a part of bringing new opportunities to Puerto Rico!!!

PRIDCO LEASE UPDATE

 We have been working really hard with Anthony Cordona, our representative from PRIDCO who has been working through all the complex issues associated with leasing their building in Mayaguez.  After the Investment Summit in San Juan ended last Friday at noon, we spent much of the afternoon with Anthony at PRIDCO headquarters and we are pleased to announce that we received a hardcopy of the Lease Agreement.  The photos below are of the cover letter confirming our receipt of that Lease, as well as Lisa standing out front of Anthony’s office holding the actual document! This is a MAJOR step forward for us, so we are so grateful to Anthony and all the hardworking staff at PRIDCO who have helped make this dream come true!

We are pleased with our progress and excited to welcome new IMPACT INVESTORS to our team, so thank you for VOTING with your DOLLARS!  We appreciate the support and we also want to let you know that we’ve gotten a lot of attention from Bitcoin and Ethereum holders because we can accept payment in those formats. We are also a qualified Opportunity Zone so we can provide an important shelter against capital gains tax which is a big deal!

Fusion Farms is doing a variety of marketing and promotions to introduce our investment opportunity to a global audience of IMPACT INVESTORS, so we thought we'd share one advertising spot on Transmedia worldwide where we are a new marketing partner on the Jiggy Jaguar Show on JJTV and the KJAG Radio broadcast.

We are in Southern California from February 20th until March 4th, so if you want to meet up to have a direct in-person conversation, please email CEO@FusionFarmsPR.com and we'll get a meeting scheduled!

As published at https://www.investopedia.com/terms/q/qsbs-qualified-small-business-stock.asp, Fusion Farms is a Qualified Small Business Stock. The Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 1202 defines a qualified small business (QSB). This is separate and apart from being a Qualified Opportunity Zone Investment, so this may be of special interest to prospective investors.

What is a Qualified Small Business Stock (QSBS)

A qualified small business stock (QSBS) is the stock, or share, of a qualified small business (QSB), as defined by the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). A qualified small business is a domestic and active C-corporation whose gross assets, valued at original cost, do not exceed $50 million on and immediately after its stock issuance.

Tax Implications for Qualified Small Business Stocks

Tax treatment for a QSB stock depends on when the stock was acquired and the length of its holding. The Protecting Americans from Tax Hikes Act (PATH Act), allows investors to exclude 100% of capital gains on qualified small business stock (QSBS) if the stock qualifies under Section 1202 of the IRC. The exclusion has a cap of $10 million, or 10 times the adjusted basis of the stock, whichever is greater.  Again, this is separate and apart from the benefits an investor might get from Fusion Farms being a Qualified Opportunity Zone Investment.

What is Section 1244 Stock?

Section 1244 of the Internal Revenue Code is the small business stock provision enacted to allow shareholders of domestic small business corporations to deduct a loss on the disposal of such stock as an ordinary loss rather than as a capital loss, which is limited to only $3,000 annually.

Normally, stock is treated as a capital asset and if disposed of at a loss, the loss is deducted as a capital loss. The general rule for net capital losses (losses that exceed gains) is that they are subject to an annual deduction limit of only $3,000. Any excess over $3,000 must be carried over to the next year.

A loss on Section 1244 stock, on the other hand, is deductible as an ordinary loss up to $50,000 ($100,000 on a joint return, even if only one spouse has a Section 1244 loss). A big difference!

What this means is that in the unlikely - but possible - scenario that Fusion Farms doesn't succeed (and create tax-free profits for them upon sale, or greatly reduced taxes as an Act 22 investor), investors can deduct their losses from ordinary income (for mainland investors).

Note that ordinary losses are normally 100% deductible. However, while a loss on Section 1244 stock is treated as an ordinary loss, the deduction is limited to the amounts stated above.

As you know from our prior updates, we have been placed on the top of the list of applicants to receive a $250,000 grant from PRIDCO for our Solar Power Plant. We worked with three different solar companies to get bids, the best of which was part of our submission/application to PRIDCO. We are very excited about the design, so we thought we would share some pictures of a similar system which was constructed for another company here in Puerto Rico prior to Hurricane Maria.

This is what we're calling the Fish Pergola, which will be the structural support for the additional solar tiles and which will also act as shade for the Fish Tanks.

Dear new Fusion Farms Owners and Followers,

Thanks to you we've now exceeded our Minimum Funding Goal!  

We've now achieved our first tier goal and have some exciting news!  We just received confirmation yesterday from PRIDCO that we, as Anthony Cordona said, are "at the TOP of the list for approval of our solar grant application"!  This means we are first in line to be granted $250,000 for our Solar Power System!!! We also got confirmation from our representative at the USDA that we do not have to have (although we're still continuing our application) our Certificacion Bonafide de Agricultura (certification as a dedicated agriculture company from the Puerto Rico Department of Agriculture). so with the USDA back to work after the government shutdown that furloughed all the workers, we are able to proceed with our application for their loan guarantee. We have confirmed that our commercial banker, Oriental Bank, is coordinating on our $250,000 equipment loan for the USDA loan guarantee, so we should have an answer on that in the next month as well.

Be sure to stay tuned for more exciting announcements!  This will be FUN and MEANINGFUL!

If you are considering an investment in Fusion Farms, now is a fantastic time to take action and join our growing family!  Please also share this exciting opportunity with friends and loved ones so they can take advantage too!  We are incredibly grateful and humbled by your support so far!

THANK YOU!!!

Hello Everyone!


Thanks to every who has invested in Fusion Farms so far! We have just exceeded our minimum $10k and looking to keep the momentum going. Please keep spreading the word! 


Beyond the funds invested, this campaign is resulting in so many other positive developments:

Press

We have a slew of press coverage coming out over the next few weeks in local and national publications. Stay tuned! 


Cryptocurrency Payments

We have been approved to accept Bitcoin and Ethereum as forms of payment for investors who are looking to use those to purchase stock. Encouraged by this additional form of payment, along with the fact that we're a qualified Opportunity Zone Investment, we are orienting and accelerating the marketing or our investment to reach cryptocurrency holders who have capital gains they are looking to shelter. Go to https://www.fusionfarmspr.com/get-involved/puerto-rico-qualified-opportunity-zone/ to learn more. 


PRIDCO INCENTIVE APPLICATION

We have been qualified as one of eight applicants being considered for a $250,000 solar grant, so we hope to be an awarded recipient and we'll make that announcement as soon as we hear back from PRIDCO!

Thank you again for your support. You are helping us make Food Sovereignty in Puerto Rico a reality!
