Wilder Fields

Initially called Backyard Fresh Farms, Wilder Fields was based at The Plant from 2017 to 2022 in what now feels like a tiny little 1800sf space. From there, this vertical farm focused on microgreens expanded into a 135,000sf former Target in Calumet City. Redevelopment of the vacant building brought much-needed jobs and investment into to the south suburban community. And we loved this story of one of the former Target employees who got a job with Wilder Fields!
