By Michael Tomberlin
The Alabama Farmers Agriculture Foundation is prepared to invest an estimated $100 million in a new Alabama Farm Center in Chilton County that could create up to 400 jobs and have an annual economic impact of $55 million.
The plans call for a four-building complex on a 500-acre parcel owned by the city of Clanton and Chilton County on the east side of Interstate 65 at Exit 212 between Alabama 145 and County Road 43. The site was chosen from a dozen in the state seeking to win the project.
The Alabama Farm Center will include a 5,000-seat air-conditioned arena, 150,000 square foot exhibition building, 400-stall horse barn, 400 recreational vehicle hookups and a variety of other barns and arenas.
