Mid-Ohio Food Collective Opens Hilltop Farm To Help Supply Pantries
Mid-Ohio Food Collective celebrated the opening of its technology-rich "smart farm" in the Hilltop on Tuesday, though it's already been producing fresh food for several months.
Everything grown at the seven-acre farm on Wheatland Avenue goes to Mid-Ohio’s food banks and markets. CEO Matt Habash said the farm came from the idea that MOFC had to do things differently to keep up with a growing need.
The site also has a futuristic LED-light year-round mobile growing center housed in a repurposed shipping container.
