BELTON â A massive indoor lettuce farm in Belton is about to get much larger.
TrueHarvest Farms, a 54,000-square-foot hydroponic greenhouse, is planning a 3.5-acre indoor addition that will more than quadruple annual production.
âWeâre going to break ground on the new greenhouse in July,â said Marshall McDaniel, one of the owners of the farm. âWe will be able grow about 8 million heads of lettuce every year.â
Thatâs a lot of salad!
All of the produce is grown hydroponically and free of pesticides.
The expansion will allow TrueHarvest to expand its product line and reach new customers through service contracts and supermarkets.
