Rockwell Automation, Feeding America Eastern Wisconsin and Fork Farms Launch Clock Tower Farms

Rockwell Automation's Clock Tower Farms is fully operational at its Milwaukee headquarters in partnership with Fork Farms & Feeding America Eastern Wisconsin.
The indoor farm utilizes 72 energy-efficient Fork Farms Flex Acre hydroponic systems & Rockwell's PlantPAx control technology to grow produce year-round.
At maximum capacity, the facility will produce approximately 200,000 pounds of leafy greens & other fresh produce annually.
Harvested food is distributed directly to Feeding America Eastern Wisconsin's network of nearly 600 partners serving 35 counties with no long-term storage delays.
Rockwell employees volunteered to build & maintain the growing systems as part of the project's launch.
The farm uses controlled-environment agriculture where seeds germinate in two weeks, grow for three weeks with automated nutrient & light monitoring, & are harvested immediately for distribution.
