In less than two years, Orlando’s College Park neighborhood has transformed from a sleepy area satisfied with its 1950s charm to one bustling with the construction of modern luxury apartments and trendy hangouts like a food hall and brewery.
Now, a 40-acre farm is planned for the newly named Packing District, led by local restaurateur and businessman Johnny Rivers, CEO of 4 Rivers Restaurant Group.
Rivers says the regular harvests form the farm, to be located at John Young Parkway and Princeton Street, will be dedicated to feeding the hungry.
