Agri-food Project
Funded by the UK Food Valley, Boston College is able to build an Agri-food Hub to help build new skills training infrastructure for the agrifood sector. Skills capital grants for teaching skills to support agrifood in the county are being distributed by the UK Food Valley, a support organisation launched by the Greater Lincolnshire Local Enterprise Partnership which is now part of Lincolnshire County Council.
A cutting-edge Agrifood Hub will be housed in a modular building on an existing car park within the college site, comprising a new product development (NPD) kitchen, digital suite and hydroponics unit to upskill young people and adults within the agrifood sector. The facility will provide state-of-the-art training in hydroponic farming, sustainable food production and innovative product development techniques, addressing regional skills gaps by partnering with a private company (Hydrogarden Ltd) and the University of Lincoln (Food Enterprise & Food Manufacturing Centre).
