Solar Panels Provide Renewable Energy to Hydroponic Freight Farm

The Twin Cities Rotary EcoClub led a Rotary grant project to install solar panels on the hydroponic Freight Farm at North Market in North Minneapolis. The hydroponic farm provides fresh, healthy hyper-local food to an area of Minneapolis that has the least amount of access to fresh healthy food. The project is a collaboration with Pillsbury United Communities, Greenway Solar, St. Thomas University Engineering Students, and Rotary District 5950. The Freight Farm is now 100% on renewable energy.
