Homes selling quickly in Houston's first agrihood

Houston’s first agrihood has yet to fully bloom, but the budding concept already has cultivated plenty of homebuyers. 

Johnson Development Corp., a Houston-based developer, is under construction on Harvest Green, a new master-planned community that is anchored by a working farm.

The 1,300-acre community — located off the Grand Parkway and West Airport Boulevard in Fort Bend County — will feature up to 2,000 homes, more than 300 acres of farmland and several “ag-menities,” including a farm-to-table restaurant, greenhouse, a grove of fruit trees, a nursery, farm stands and community gardens.

Eleven homebuilders opened their model homes this fall. Although sales started only three months ago, homebuilders already have sold 85 homes in the new community.
