BlUElab Metro Solar is working on creating a community space for Willow Run Acres consisting of picnic tables with solar-powered lights and phone chargers. The aim of the project is to enable the farm to foster community and encourage visitors while promoting technology. The tables will be weather-resistant, and phone chargers will accommodate all phone types to increase accessibility.
BLUElab Metro Irrigation is working with Willow Run Acres to develop a smart water irrigation system for their Clayhill site. This involves irrigation system design and construction, along with automation design. Automated valves are programmed to service specific zones of plants, and watering recommendations are provided using data collected from weather stations and independent farmer insight.
