Upcoming Events
80 Acres Farms Virtual Tour
Earth Day April 22, 2021
9:30 AM - 10:30 AM EST
Join us as we celebrate Earth Day on our first virtual tour through the new 80 Acres Farms in Hamilton, OH.
Their founders, Mike and Tisha, knew that food wasn't what it used to be. They wanted to make it better-and they did it by creating a new kind of farm. One capable of producing an abundance of crop varieties year-round. Completely indoors. Using 100% renewable energy. Without any pesticides or excessive food miles. Big vision, right? Well, they did it. And they called it 80 Acres Farms.
IOPP Cincinnati Chapter will participate in a unique virtual tour inside the vertical farm at the new 70,000 sq ft facility. Produce grown at the Hamilton site will supply local grocery retailers such as Whole Foods Markets, Dorothy Lane Markets, Jungle Jim's, and Kroger. The Hamilton site is automated from seeding to growing to harvesting to pack-out for highest quality and food safety standards.
REMINDER: The email address you use to register will be the same email we use to send the virtual invite link. We will be using Ring Central Meeting for our event so please be sure to download the Ring Central Meeting App ahead of the event. The virtual event link will be sent to all registrants on 4/21/21 and again as a reminder on 4/22/21. Questions? Email: maskren@bcipkg.com
