Orlando Welcomes First ‘Agrihood’ Development
Orlando is getting its first 'agrihood' called The Grow, which will integrate a residential neighborhood with a working farm.
Orlando Daytona Beach Melbourne, FL, July 27, 2026 —
Orlando is set to introduce its first development that combines residential living with agricultural practices, a concept known as an ‘agrihood.’ The project, named The Grow, aims to integrate a working farm directly into the fabric of a neighborhood.
The Grow represents a new approach to community development in Orlando, merging the traditional elements of a residential area with the functionality of a farm. This innovative model is designed to foster a closer connection between residents and their food sources.
Details regarding the specific features of the residential component and the scale of the working farm have not been fully detailed. Information on the developers behind The Grow, the projected timeline for its completion, or the types of crops or livestock intended for the farm was not immediately available.
The agrihood concept has been gaining traction in various communities, offering residents the opportunity to engage with farming activities, access fresh produce, and benefit from the open spaces typically associated with agricultural land. The Grow is poised to be Orlando’s inaugural venture into this type of integrated living environment.
