Vertical Harvest Tour 10-21-23
SEAM and the Portland Society of Architects are being hosted for a tour of the Vertical Harvest Facility in Westbrook, ME
The Tour is limited to 20 people from SEAM. The first 20 to RSVP to director1@seam.org will reserve a spot or get on the waiting list.
This Vertical Harvest/City of Westbrook Development project is comprised of a vertical urban farm and a four-story parking structure located in the heart of Westbrook, Maine's downtown district. Developed in partnership with the city of Westbrook, this transformative mixed-use development aims to produce 2 million pounds of produce annually to provide fresh nutritious produce to schools, hospitals, restaurants, markets, and consumers, as well as to provide much needed additional parking for the City. Vertical Harvest delivers a hydroponic, controlled agriculture environment that uses 85% less water to deliver produce at peak flavor and nutrition year-round. Currently under construction, this dynamic and complex urban project promises to be a vital catalyst for Westbrook's continued revitalization and serves an exciting new model for climate-resilient urban agriculture.
