The Warehouse - a Wilmington-based community space billed as “For Teens, By Teens” - is teaming up with Delmarva Power. The Warehouse and Delmarva Power plan to work together on several new initiatives, according to Melody Phillips, director of operations at The Warehouse.
“The Agricultural Pod is a shipping container. And it will produce about an acre to an acre-and-a-half worth of produce; and it’s all around hydroponics and vertical farming," said Phillips. "So our teens will have the ability to learn about hydroponics and agricultural farming and grow produce inside the Ag Pod.”
She notes the first batch of produce is expected to be available in February or March just as the farmers’ market season starts.
