PROSPECTUS |
| SUBJECT TO COMPLETION, DATED NOVEMBER 14, 2025 |
EDIBLE GARDEN AG INCORPORATED
4,043,142 Shares of Common Stock Offered by the Selling Stockholders
This prospectus relates to the public offering of up to 4,043,142 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“common stock”), of Edible Garden AG Incorporated by the selling stockholders. Of these shares, 4,043,142 shares are issuable upon the exercise of outstanding warrants exercisable for one share of common stock at an exercise price of $2.06 per share with a term of five years from the issuance date (the “warrants”).
The selling stockholders may sell common stock from time to time in the principal market on which the stock is traded at the prevailing market price or in negotiated transactions.
We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of common stock by the selling stockholders. We will pay the expenses of registering these shares.
Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbol “EDBL.” The closing price of our common stock on Nasdaq on November 10, 2025 was $1.44 per share. On October 21, 2024, we received a letter from Listing Qualifications Staff (the “Staff”) of Nasdaq indicating that, based on the closing bid price of our common stock for 30 consecutive business days, we no longer met Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), which requires listed companies to maintain a minimum bid price of at least $1.00 per share, (the “Bid Price Rule”). On January 14, 2025, we attended our hearing with Nasdaq and on February 12, 2025, we received written notification (the “Notice”) from Nasdaq that a Nasdaq Hearings Panel granted an extension for us to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule until March 31, 2025, subject to additional conditions outlined in the Notice. On April 8, 2025, we received a letter from Nasdaq confirming that we had regained compliance with the Bid Price Rule but will remain under a Nasdaq discretionary panel monitor until April 8, 2026.
Investing in our securities is speculative and involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully read and consider the risk factors described under the heading “Risk Factors” beginning on page 6 of this prospectus and the “Risk Factors” section included in the periodic reports that we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission for a discussion of risks that should be considered in connection with an investment in our securities.
Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.
The date of this prospectus is , 2025.

We caution you that the foregoing list may not contain all of the forward-looking statements made in this prospectus. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy, short term and long-term business operations and objectives, and financial needs. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including those described in “Risk Factors.” Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking events and circumstances discussed in this prospectus may not occur and actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements.
You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee that the future results, levels of activity, performance or events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur. We undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason after the date of this prospectus to conform these statements to actual results or to changes in our expectations.
You should read this prospectus and the documents that we reference in this prospectus and have filed with the SEC as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part with the understanding that our actual future results, levels of activity, performance and events and circumstances may be materially different from what we expect.

Before investing in our common stock, you should carefully read this entire prospectus, including our consolidated financial statements and the related notes and other documents incorporated by reference herein, as well as the information under the caption "Risk Factors" herein and under similar headings in the other documents that are incorporated by reference into this prospectus including documents that are filed after the date hereof. Some of the statements in this prospectus constitute forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. See “Cautionary Note Concerning Forward-Looking Statements.” Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including those discussed in the “Risk Factors” and other sections included in or incorporated by reference herein. In this prospectus, unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise requires, references to “Edible Garden,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “our,” or similar references mean Edible Garden AG Incorporated and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.
Our Company
Edible Garden is a controlled environment agriculture (“CEA”) farming company. We use traditional agricultural growing techniques together with technology to grow fresh, organic food, sustainably and safely while improving traceability. We use the controlled environment of traditional greenhouse structures, such as glass greenhouses, together with hydroponic and vertical greenhouses to sustainably grow organic herbs. In our hydroponic greenhouse, we grow plants without soil. Instead of planting one row of plants in the ground, by using a vertical greenhouse, we can grow many towers of plants in the same area by planting up instead of planting across. Growing these products sustainably means that we avoid depleting natural resources in order to maintain an ecological balance, such as by renewing, reusing and recycling materials in order to lower the overall one-time use of materials.
Our controlled greenhouse facilities allow us to grow consistent quality herbs year-round, first by eliminating some of the variability of outdoor farming with our CEA techniques, and second by leveraging our proprietary software, GreenThumb. In addition to using hydroponic and vertical greenhouse systems, we use a “closed loop” system in our greenhouses. Generally, in a “closed loop” system, drain water is recollected and reused for irrigation. In our closed loop system, we also cycle water back into the system that has been collected through reverse osmosis. When compared to conventional agriculture, our closed looped systems and hydroponic methods use less land, less energy and less water (than legacy farms), thus conserving some of the planet’s limited natural resources. Our advanced systems are also designed to help mitigate contamination from harmful pathogens, including salmonella, e-coli and others.
We have also developed patented software called GreenThumb that assists in tracking plants through our supply chain. Utilizing our GreenThumb software to track the status of our plants as they grow and move throughout the greenhouse allows us to add a layer of quality control due to the frequent monitoring of the growing process, leading to improved traceability. In this context, traceability means being able to track a plant through all stages of production and distribution. In addition to improving traceability, GreenThumb helps us better manage the day-to-day operations of our business. GreenThumb is a web-based greenhouse management and demand planning system. We also use our GreenThumb software to help monitor the quality of our products, and we have dedicated quality assurance and quality control personnel that check and monitor our products. We have customer service personnel that answer any questions the consumers of our products may have, and we regularly ask for feedback from our customers on the quality of our products. The combination of the GreenThumb software, quality assurance and control processes (including compliance with food safety standards), and feedback from consumers and purchasers holds us accountable for maintaining the quality of our products. |
| 1 |
| Table of Contents |
We focus our efforts on producing our herbs and vegetables in a sustainable manner that will reduce consumption of natural resources, by recycling water in our closed loop system and using LED lights instead of conventional lightbulbs to accelerate crop growth and yield, when necessary. In addition, the inventory management component of GreenThumb allows us to manage inventory levels, order quantities and fill rates while maximizing truck loads. This means that we are better able to control shipping our products in full truck loads and retailer backhaul programs, thus eliminating multiple deliveries and decreasing the excess emission of greenhouse gases that would result from many partially full trucks delivering our products. Together, these elements of our production and distribution process are intended to reduce our carbon footprint, or the total amount of greenhouse gases that are generated by our actions, as compared to a legacy farm business.
We believe our focus on our brand “Edible Garden” is a significant differentiator. The brand not only lends itself to our current portfolio of products but allows us to develop other products in the “Consumer Brands” category. Our focus on sustainability, traceability, and social contribution, which we define as an ongoing effort to improve employee relations, working conditions, and local communities, presents our value proposition to our customers and supermarket partners and distributors. We have recently leveraged our brand recognition to offer more consumer products that are in many cases co-manufactured, such as sauces, fermented products and flavor enhancers.
We believe that Edible Garden’s facilities comply with food safety and handling standards. We have food safety certifications from Primus GFS, a Global Food Safety Initiative certification program, the United States Department of Agriculture for Organic products, and some of our products are verified as non-genetically modified (“non-GMO”) by the non-GMO Project. We are licensed under the Perishable Agricultural Commodities Act to operate our business. We voluntarily comply with the Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point principles established by the United States Food and Drug Administration. See “Business - Overview” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the “2024 Form 10-K”) which is incorporated herein by reference for more information about our certifications, licenses and the standards we follow.
We believe that the power of our brand together with the quality, innovative packaging, patented displays and traceability of our products allow all of our customers to associate Edible Garden with locally grown and sustainably sourced packaged herbs and vegetables. Our tag line “Simply Local, Simply Fresh” is intended to describe our business plan: growing herbs in local farms in the regional communities where our customers sell our products so that the products stay fresher for longer. We believe this strategy allows us to drive local grass roots brand awareness while we grow our business to support our plan to become a national brand.
As of September 30, 2025, we offer 115 stock keeping units “SKUs” and expect to further cross sell products across our supermarket partners to meet their demand. These products include: cut herbs; hydroponic basil; vitamin and protein powder products; fermented hot sauces; chili oil products; pickles; and squeezable herbs.
Recent Developments
October 2025 Warrant Inducement
On October 16, 2025, we entered into an Inducement Letter Agreement with an institutional investor and holder (the “Holder”) of existing warrants to purchase (i) 53 shares of our common stock issued on May 9, 2022 with an initial exercise price of $75,000 (the “May 2022 Warrants”), (ii) 1,080 shares of common stock issued on September 8, 2023 with an initial exercise price of $550 (the “September 2023 Warrants”), (iii) Class A warrants to purchase 10,619 shares of common stock and Class B warrants to purchase 10,619 shares of common stock issued on May 23, 2024 with initial exercise prices of $37.25 (the “May 2024 Warrants”), and (iv) warrants to purchase 1,999,200 shares of common stock issued on May 21, 2025 with an initial exercise price of $3.50 (the “May 2025 Warrants” and collectively with the May 2022 Warrants, September 2023 Warrants, and May 2024 Warrants, the “Existing Warrants”). The Existing Warrants were all immediately exercisable upon issuance.
Pursuant to the Inducement Letter Agreement, the Holder agreed to exercise the Existing Warrants for cash at an exercise price of $2.06 per share in consideration for our agreement to issue new unregistered five-year warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 4,043,142 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.06 per share (the “New Warrants”). The New Warrants were immediately exercisable upon issuance and have a term of five years from the issuance date.
Going Concern
We have a history of operating losses since inception and expect to incur additional near-term losses. As discussed further in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis - Liquidity and Capital Resources,” included in the 2024 Form 10-K and our subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, which are incorporated herein by reference, our auditor has included a “going concern” explanatory paragraph in its report on our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as an ongoing business for the next twelve months. Our consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty. If we cannot secure the financing needed to continue as a viable business, our shareholders may lose some or all of their investment in us. |

Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company and Smaller Reporting Company
We qualify as an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). As a result, we rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements that are applicable to other companies that are not emerging growth companies. Accordingly, we have included detailed compensation information for only our three most highly compensated executive officers and have not included a compensation discussion and analysis of our executive compensation programs in this prospectus. In addition, for so long as we are an “emerging growth company,” we will not be required to: | |||
|
|
|
|
|
| ● | engage an auditor to report on our internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002; |
|
| ● | comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements; |
|
| ● | comply with new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies as quickly as other public companies; |
|
| ● | submit certain executive compensation matters to stockholder advisory votes, such as “say-on-pay,” “say-on-frequency,” and “say-on-golden parachutes;” or |
|
| ● | disclose certain executive compensation related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance and comparison of the chief executive officer’s compensation to median employee compensation. |
In addition, the JOBS Act provides that an “emerging growth company” can use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards.
We will remain an “emerging growth company” until the earliest to occur of: | |||
|
|
|
|
|
| ● | our reporting $1.235 billion or more in annual gross revenues; |
|
| ● | our issuance, in a three-year period, of more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt; |
|
| ● | the end of the fiscal year in which the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million on the last business day of our second fiscal quarter; and |
|
| ● | December 31, 2027. |
|
|
|
|
We cannot predict if investors will find our securities less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions, which could result in a less active trading market for our securities and increased volatility in the price of our securities. | |||
| 3 |
| Table of Contents |
Finally, we are a “smaller reporting company” (and may continue to qualify as such even after we no longer qualify as an emerging growth company) and accordingly may provide less public disclosure than larger public companies, including the inclusion of only two years of audited financial statements and only two years of management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations disclosure. As a result, the information that we provide to our stockholders may be different than you might receive from other public reporting companies in which you hold equity interests.
Corporate Information
Our business is a successor business of a subsidiary of Terra Tech Corp. (now known as Blum Holdings, Inc.)(“Terra Tech”). We purchased substantially all of the assets of Edible Garden Corp., a subsidiary of Terra Tech, from Terra Tech as of March 30, 2020. Our company was incorporated on March 28, 2020 in the State of Wyoming as Edible Garden Inc.

Effective July 7, 2021, our parent company, Edible Garden Holdings Inc., merged with and into us with us as the surviving entity. We converted into a Delaware corporation effective July 12, 2021.

On January 26, 2023, we effected a reverse stock split of 1 for 30, on April 5, 2024, we effected a reverse stock split of 1 for 20, and on March 3, 2025, we effected a reverse stock split of 1 for 25.

RISK FACTORS
Investing in our common stock is highly speculative and involves a significant degree of risk. You should carefully consider the following risks and uncertainties as well as the risks and uncertainties described in the section entitled "Risk Factors" contained in the 2024 Form 10-K, as well as in our subsequent Quarterly Reports filed with the SEC, which filings are incorporated in this prospectus by reference in their entirety. These risk factors could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition. Our business faces significant risks and the risks described below or incorporated by reference herein may not be the only risks we face. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently believe are immaterial may materially affect our business, results of operations, or financial condition. If any of these risks occur, the trading price of our common stock could decline and you may lose all or part of your investment.
Because the shares of common stock that are being registered in this prospectus represent a substantial percentage of our outstanding common stock, the sale of such securities could cause the market price of our common stock to decline significantly.
This prospectus relates to the offer and sale from time to time by the selling stockholders of up to 4,043,142 shares of common stock issuable by us upon exercise of the warrants. The number of shares of common stock that the selling stockholders can sell into the public markets pursuant to this prospectus represents a significant amount of our outstanding shares of common stock. If all shares being registered hereby were sold, it would comprise approximately 79% of the 5,126,655 shares of common stock outstanding as of November 10, 2025. Given the substantial number of shares of common stock registered pursuant to this prospectus, the sale of common stock by the selling stockholders, or the public perception that such sales could occur, or that the selling stockholders intend to sell common stock, could have an adverse impact on the market price of our common stock, even if there is no relationship between such sales and the performance of our business.
We have a history of losses, expect to continue to incur losses in the near term and may not achieve or sustain profitability in the future, and as a result, our management has identified and our auditors agreed that there is a substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
We have incurred significant losses since our inception. We recognized net losses of approximately $11.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and $11.051 million during the twelve months ended December 31, 2024. As of September 30, 2025, we have an accumulated deficit of $52.7 million. Our operating activities used $9.1 million and $8.5 million of cash during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and the year ended December 31, 2024, respectively. We expect our capital expenses and operational expenses to increase in the future due to expected increased sales and marketing expenses, operational costs, and general and administrative costs. Therefore, we believe our operating losses will continue at least through the near term. You should not rely upon our past results as indicative of future performance. We may not reach profitability in the near future or at any specific time in the future. If and when our operations do become profitable, we may not sustain profitability.
The report of our independent registered public accounting firm that accompanies our audited consolidated financial statements in the 2024 Form 10-K contains a going concern explanatory paragraph in which such firm expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result if we are unable to continue as a going concern. If we are unable to continue as a going concern, holders of our securities might lose their entire investment.

There can be no assurance that our shares will continue to be listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market, which would affect our common stock’s liquidity and reduce our ability to raise capital.
On October 21, 2024, we received a letter from the Staff of Nasdaq indicating that, based on the closing bid price of our common stock for 30 consecutive business days, we no longer met the Bid Price Rule. Under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A)(iv), because we effected reverse stock splits in the last two years with a cumulative ratio greater than 250 shares to 1, we were not eligible for any compliance period to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule. On January 14, 2025, we attended our hearing with Nasdaq and on February 12, 2025, we received the Notice from Nasdaq that a Nasdaq Hearings Panel granted an extension for us to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule until March 31, 2025, subject to additional conditions outlined in the Notice. On April 8, 2025, we received a letter from Nasdaq confirming that we had regained compliance with the Bid Price Rule, however we will remain under a Nasdaq discretionary panel monitor until April 8, 2026.
According to the Nasdaq Listing Rules, under the Nasdaq discretionary panel monitor, if we fail to satisfy a continued listing requirement during the one-year monitoring period: (i) we will not be permitted to present a compliance plan to the Staff, (ii) the Staff will not be permitted to grant any additional time for us to regain compliance with the deficiency, (iii) we will not be afforded an applicable cure or compliance period pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3), and (iv) the Staff will promptly issue a delisting determination.
There can be no assurance that we will be able to maintain compliance with all applicable criteria for continued listing on Nasdaq. If our common stock is delisted, our warrants will also be delisted. We and holders of our securities could be materially adversely impacted if our securities are delisted from Nasdaq. In particular:
| · | we may be unable to raise equity capital on acceptable terms or at all; |
| · | we may lose the confidence of our customers, which would jeopardize our ability to continue our business as currently conducted; |
| · | the price of our common stock will likely decrease as a result of the loss of market efficiencies associated with Nasdaq and the loss of federal preemption of state securities laws; |
| · | holders may be unable to sell or purchase our securities when they wish to do so; |
| · | we may become subject to stockholder litigation; |
| · | we may lose the interest of institutional investors in our common stock; |
| · | we may lose media and analyst coverage; |
| · | our common stock could be considered a “penny stock,” which would likely limit the level of trading activity in the secondary market for our common stock; and |
| · | we would likely lose any active trading market for our common stock, as it may only be traded on one of the over-the-counter markets, if at all. |

| Table of Contents |
If our shares of common stock become subject to the penny stock rules, it would become more difficult to trade our shares.
The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or authorized for quotation on certain automated quotation systems, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system. If we do not retain a listing on Nasdaq and if the price of our common stock is less than $5.00, our common stock will be deemed a penny stock. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, before a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document containing specified information. In addition, the penny stock rules require that before effecting any transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, a broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive (i) the purchaser’s written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement; (ii) a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks; and (iii) a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our common stock, and therefore stockholders may have difficulty selling their shares.

USE OF PROCEEDS
This prospectus relates to shares of our common stock that may be offered and sold from time to time by the selling stockholders. We will not receive any of the proceeds resulting from the sale of common stock by the selling stockholders.
However, we will receive gross proceeds of approximately $8.3 million from the cash exercise of the warrants by the selling stockholders, if any. We intend to use such proceeds for working capital and general corporate purposes. There is no assurance that the holders of the warrants will elect to exercise any or all of the warrants. The exercise price of the warrants is $2.06 per share. We believe the likelihood that warrant holders will exercise their warrants, and therefore the amount of cash proceeds that we would receive, is highly dependent upon the trading price of our common stock. The closing price of our common stock on Nasdaq on November 10, 2025 was $1.44 per share. If the trading price for our common stock is less than the exercise price of the warrants, we believe holders of the warrants will be unlikely to exercise their warrants for cash. To the extent that shares of common stock are issued pursuant to the exercise of warrants on a “cashless basis,” the amount of cash we would receive from the exercise of the warrants will decrease.
SELLING STOCKHOLDERS
This prospectus relates to the offering by the selling stockholders of up to 4,043,142 shares of common stock, which are issuable upon exercise of outstanding warrants.
The following table sets forth, based on information provided to us by the selling stockholders or known to us, the name of each selling stockholder, the number of shares offered by each selling stockholder, the number of shares of our common stock beneficially owned by the selling stockholder before this offering, and the number and percentage of shares of our common stock beneficially owned by the selling stockholder after the offering. The number of shares owned are those beneficially owned, as determined under the rules of the SEC, and the information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Under these rules, beneficial ownership includes any shares of common stock as to which a person has sole or shared voting power or investment power and any shares of common stock which the person has the right to acquire within 60 days through the exercise of any option, warrant or right, through conversion of any security or pursuant to the automatic termination of a power of attorney or revocation of a trust, discretionary account or similar arrangement. To our knowledge, except as set forth below, none of the selling stockholders is a broker-dealer or an affiliate of a broker-dealer. None of the selling stockholders has had any position, office or other material relationship, within the past three years, with us or with any of our predecessors or affiliates.

| Table of Contents |
We have assumed all shares of common stock reflected on the table will be sold from time to time in the offering covered by this prospectus. Because the selling stockholders may offer all or any portion of the shares of common stock listed in the table below, no estimate can be given as to the amount of those shares of common stock covered by this prospectus that will be held by the selling stockholders upon the termination of the offering.

The warrants are subject to a beneficial ownership limitation of 4.99%, which such limitation restricts the Selling Stockholder from exercising that portion of the warrants that would result in the Selling Stockholder and its affiliates owning, after exercise, a number of shares of common stock in excess of the beneficial ownership limitation.

| Table of Contents |
In connection with the sale of our common stock or interests therein, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions it assumes. To the extent permitted by applicable securities laws, the selling stockholders may also sell shares of our common stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares of common stock offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).
The aggregate proceeds to the selling stockholders from the sale of the common stock offered by the selling stockholders will be the purchase price of the common stock less discounts or commissions, if any. The selling stockholders reserve the right to accept and, together with their agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of common stock to be made directly or through agents. We will not receive any of the proceeds from this offering.
The selling stockholders also may resell all or a portion of the shares of common stock in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act, provided that the selling stockholders meet the criteria and conforms to the requirements of that rule.
The selling stockholders and any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents that participate in the sale of the common stock or interests therein may be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act. Any discounts, commissions, concessions or profit any selling stockholder earns on any resale of the shares of common stock covered by this prospectus may be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Selling stockholders who are “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.
To the extent required, the shares of our common stock to be sold, the names of the selling stockholders, the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, the names of any agents, dealer or underwriter, any applicable commissions or discounts with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that includes this prospectus.
In order to comply with the securities laws of some states, if applicable, the common stock may be sold in these jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the common stock may not be sold unless it has been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification requirements is available and is complied with.
We have advised the selling stockholders that the anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares in the market and to the activities of the selling stockholders and their affiliates. In addition, to the extent applicable we will make copies of this prospectus (as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time) available to the selling stockholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”) provides that a Delaware corporation, in its certificate of incorporation, may limit the personal liability of a director or officer to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duties as a director or officer, except for liability for any:
| · | transaction from which the director or officer derived an improper personal benefit; |
|
|
|
| · | act or omission not in good faith or that involved intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; |
|
|
|
| · | unlawful payment of dividends or redemption of shares by the director; |
|
|
|
| · | breach of the director’s or officer’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders; or |
|
|
|
| · | action by or in the right of the corporation against an officer. |
Under Section 145 of the DGCL, we can indemnify our directors and officers against liabilities they may incur in such capacities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Our certificate of incorporation provides that we must indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by law and requires us to pay expenses incurred in defending or other participating in any proceeding in advance of its final disposition upon our receipt of an undertaking by the director or officer to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined that the director or officer is not entitled to indemnification. Our certificate of incorporation further provides that rights conferred under such certificate of incorporation do not exclude any other right such persons may have or acquire under the certificate of incorporation, the bylaws, any statute, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.
The certificate of incorporation also provides that, pursuant to Delaware law, our directors shall not be liable for monetary damages for breach of the directors’ fiduciary duty of care to us and our stockholders. This provision in the certificate of incorporation does not eliminate the duty of care, and in appropriate circumstances equitable remedies such as injunctive or other forms of non-monetary relief will remain available under Delaware law. In addition, each director will continue to be subject to liability for breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to us for acts or omissions not in good faith or involving intentional misconduct, or knowing violations of law, for actions leading to improper personal benefit to the director, and for payment of dividends or approval of stock repurchases or redemptions that are unlawful under Delaware law. The provision also does not affect a director’s responsibilities under any other law, such as the federal securities laws or state or federal environmental laws. We have also obtained directors’ and officers’ liability insurance pursuant to which our directors and officers are insured against liability for actions taken in their capacities as directors and officers.
In addition, we have entered into agreements to indemnify our directors and certain of our officers in addition to the indemnification provided for in the certificate of incorporation. These agreements, among other things, indemnify our directors and some of our officers for certain expenses (including attorney’s fees), judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by such person in any action or proceeding, including any action by or in our right, on account of services by that person as a director or officer of our company or as a director or officer of our subsidiary, or as a director or officer of any other company or enterprise that the person provides services to at our request.

Item 17. Undertakings.
(a) | The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes: |
| (1) | To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement: |
| (i) | To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933; |
|
|
|
| (ii) | To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Filing Fee Tables” or “Calculation of Registration Fee” table, as applicable, in the effective registration statement; and |
|
|
|
| (iii) | To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement. |
| provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (ii) and (iii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement. | |
|
|
|
| (2) | That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. |
|
|
|
| (3) | To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. |
|
|
|
| (4) | That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use. |
(b) | The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. |
|
|
(c) | Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. |

| Re: | Registration Statement on Form S-3 |
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel to Edible Garden AG Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with its filing of a Registration Statement on Form S-3, together with the exhibits thereto (the “Registration Statement”) to be filed on the date hereof, with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), with respect to the registration of 4,043,142 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Shares”), par value $0.0001 per share, issuable upon exercise of previously issued warrants (the “Warrants”). This opinion is furnished to you at your request to enable you to fulfill the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K in connection with the filing of the Registration Statement.
For purposes of this opinion, we have with your permission made the following assumptions, in each case without independent verification: (i) the due authorization, execution and delivery of all documents by the parties thereto other than the Company; (ii) the genuineness of all signatures on all documents submitted to us; (iii) the authenticity and completeness of all documents, corporate records, certificates and other instruments (the “Records”) submitted to us; (iv) that photocopy, electronic, certified, conformed, facsimile and other copies submitted to us of the Records conform to the original Records; (v) the legal capacity of all individuals executing documents; (vi) that all documents are the valid and binding obligations of each of the parties thereto other than the Company, enforceable against such parties in accordance with their respective terms and that no such documents have been amended or terminated orally or in writing; (vii) that the statements contained in the certificates and comparable documents of public officials, officers and representatives of the Company and other persons on which we have relied for the purposes of this opinion are true and correct; and (viii) that at the time the Shares are issued, the Company will be validly existing and there will be sufficient Shares authorized under the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, as amended and then in effect, and not otherwise issued or reserved for issuance. As to all questions of fact material to this opinion, we have relied (without independent verification) upon certificates or comparable documents of officers and representatives of the Company.
