Awake Goy A new farm-to-table community, said to be the first in California, has opened in the city of Davis. The Cannery is made up of more than 500 energy-efficient homes, open spaces and trails surrounded and fed by a 7.4-ac (3-ha) working farm.
Of the other neighborhoods, Tilton and Persimmon comprise cottages and bungalows respectively, with their homes priced from the low $700,000s. Heirloom, meanwhile is comprised of townhomes priced from the mid $400,000s. Each home in the Cannery features a 1.5-kW solar system for energy generation and can be upgraded for net zero living.
The Cannery also boasts a 10-mi (16-km) network of bike trails, as well as a network of walking paths for people to get around. A plaza provides space for outdoor get-togethers, access to retail outlets and covered bicycle parking with places to use and charge electronic devices. There will also be an agri-classroom for those wishing to learn about agriculture.
