<h1>Rory Aronson<br /><small class="subtitle">CEO of FarmBot Inc.</small></h1>
|

<p>
|
|
|
|
Rory is the CEO of FarmBot Inc, a California benefit corporation that produces 100% open-source CNC farming machines designed
|
|
|
|
for small-scale automated precision food production.
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|

|
|
|
|
Rory started the project from his sunny porch in San Luis Obispo with the publishing of the FarmBot
|
|
|
|
whitepaper in September of 2013. From there, he formed a small team consisting of hardware and software
|
|
|
|
engineers who brought the project to market in July of 2016 with the debut of FarmBot Genesis.
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
After raising over $1,000,000 in pre-order sales in 2016, the team shipped their first units to customers in early 2017.
|
|
|
|
Today, over 900 FarmBot kits have been delivered to customers all around the world, and the FarmBot community continues to grow.
