From ExitEvent: BrightFarms, a New York-based builder of hydroponic urban greenhouses, is checking out Durham and Raleigh for 50,000 to 200,000 square feet of space for a new greenhouse -- “ideally, on a rooftop,” said the company.
And they're willing to pay $1,000 to the person who helps them find the right location.
BrightFarms has announced the “Envision Us Here” contest. Visit the contest page for their criteria, which opens up some interesting possibilities. For instance, they need heat, so they could be located near a brewery.
The contest ends September 15th, and the company expects the new greenhouse to be up and running in 2013.
