This Diverse and longstanding company wanted a little piece of the country to expand their alcohol beverage company, so the purchased a challenging site on the edge of Peterborough. The master plan will create a beautiful site for their new manufacturing facility, with orchards, vines, meadows and herbs, and of course a stunning view over the landscape. The site is extremely hilly so finding a flat area to build within the zoning constraints was challenging. Then working with the remaining slope VELD architect designed cropping rows, alternating plots of vines with plots of orchards trees to help with erosion. Using keyline design and stormwater managment swales the water run-off can be controlled to naturally irrigate the rows. VELD architect help balance the zoning, building code and site to create a cost effective solution to the site.
