Project Description:
The Witter Farm Modernization project includes the construction of a new Robotic Dairy Facility, renovating the Horse Barn, and removing the Shep Barn, Shep Shed, original Dairy Facility, and a storage barn. The Shep Shed and Shep Barn were demolished in the summer of 2024, and renovations to the Horse Barn were completed in 2024. The Witter Farm Robotic Dairy Facility is substantially completed with punch-list items and close-out remaining. The dairy cows have been relocated to the new facility. The existing dairy facility and adjacent storage barn will be removed in the summer of this year. Carpenter Associates completed the design, and the construction manager is C.E.M./DP Porter Contractors Inc. Funding of $3.6 million comes from multiple sources.
