The Essential Features of an Agrihood

What Makes an Agrihood Different from a Traditional Neighborhood?

Burns Village & Farm is being carefully planned to align with ULI’s best practices for agrihood development. But what exactly defines an agrihood?

Key Features of an Agrihood

Working Farm → Which will be professionally managed to provide fresh, local food.
Clustered Housing → Maximizing green space while promoting walkability.
Edible Landscaping → Fruit trees, herb gardens, and community garden plots.
Preserved Open Space → Protecting farmland and maintaining a natural environment.
Walkability & Trails → Encouraging outdoor activity and sustainable transportation.
Farm-to-Table Experiences → Our common house will gather members for farm-to-table meals.

Burns Village & Farm will be designed with these core agrihood principles in mind. Stay tuned as we develop a one-of-a-kind community focused on food, health, and sustainability!
