HLA Celebrates New Overbeck Controlled Agriculture Facility with Ribbon-Cutting Ceremony

Bernie Engel and Linda Prokopy with the Overbeck family cutting the ribbon.

On Friday, October 18, we held a ribbon-cutting for the Overbeck Controlled Agriculture Facility located at the Purdue Student Farm. Members of the Overbeck Family were present to cut the ribbon cleverly made to look like lettuce! It was a lovely event and attendees got to see first-hand how well Brittany Weerts has our Freight Farm containers up and running! Thanks to Chris Adair and all his student helpers for getting the Farm in great shape for the event. More information will be coming out in an official press release next week so stay tuned for more details!
