Construction to start on food processing center

Posted on October 20, 2010 by Staff

The public is invited to a groundbreaking ceremony for the Piedmont Food and Agricultural Processing Center on Wednesday at 10:30 a.m.

The facility will be located at 500 Valley Forge Road in Hillsborough and is scheduled to open in March 2011. It will provide more than 10,000 square feet of commercial kitchen space for farmers and food entrepreneurs. The center will allow clients to lease commercial kitchen space by the hour for vegetable and food processing for the production of value-added food products for commercial distribution. Freezer and refrigerated space and entrepreneur offices will also be available for lease.

The center will be managed by Orange County under the guidance of an Inter-local Cooperative Agreement between Alamance, Chatham, Durham and Orange counties.
