Battery Park Eco Farms is a farming operation based in Richmond, Virginia, established in 2013 through the Sustainable Technology Institute to support urban farming research, city revitalization, and access to healthier local food in a nearby food desert. The organization focuses on developing and testing an urban hydroponic gardening model that combines food production with waste diversion, aiming to use renewable energy concepts to reduce operating costs and lower the farm’s carbon footprint. Its work centers on exploring synergies between anaerobic digestion and hydroponics, with a goal of creating a replicable approach for growing food in urban settings. The farm operates within a mid-sized local context, reflecting an emphasis on research-driven urban agriculture and community impact rather than conventional commercial farming at scale.
