Established as a partnership with the Burlington County Board of Chosen Freeholders, the Rutgers EcoComplex field station focuses on solid waste management, renewable energy, and water quality under the Rutgers NJ Agricultural Experiment Station’s Economic Development Program. The complex features a 56,000-square-foot state-of-the-art greenhouse facility used to showcase energy and water conservation technologies, grow production-style vegetable crops year-round, and serve as an incubator for horticultural-related businesses. The EcoComplex also serves the surrounding community, hosting meetings and training seminars for local governments, and science fairs for area elementary schools. Approximately 200 local school children tour the facility each year to learn about recycling, renewable energy, and water resources. Additionally, the center works closely with the Juvenile Justice Commission to host an annual flower show and international festival for at-risk youth.
