Where We Are
The NC State Fruit and Vegetable Science Institute will eventually share a building, pictured above, with Dole researchers. Completion of the structure that will house the institute is expected in the summer of 2008. In the meantime, the institute is housed in temporary office space on West Avenue in Historic Cannon Village. About a mile from the research campus state-of-the-art greenhouses are being built, which will allow companies and universities to test their theories in a real life agricultural setting.
