For the last three years, Farm Fresh RI has been hard at work on all the tasks needed to take on a real estate development project — including defining the project, planning and designing the building, performing due diligence, acquiring and remediating the site, and accomplishing a great deal of fundraising. This hard work came together this summer, when we closed on our financing and began construction on the Farm Fresh RI Food Hub at the corner of Sims and Kinsley Ave in the Valley neighborhood of Providence.
