IMPORTANT NOTE

Barrington Area Community Foundation recently awarded Smart Farm a significant grant to help build our high tunnel hoop house. Our sincerest thanks go to the Foundation for their generous support.

Our hoop house will be used for year-round production to feed the hungry and as a center for learning for the community.

Check back here to see our progress in building our hoop house!
