Article Summary:
Green Farm Juicery will relocate just down the street as the Hyde Park Square redevelopment moves forward. The announcement offers another glimpse into how one of Cincinnati’s most closely watched neighborhood projects is reshaping the district — without driving every longtime business away.
Green Farm Juicery has served Hyde Park for years.
It’s been through a global pandemic, a rotating cast of diet trends, and the everyday routines of its regulars.
Now, redevelopment is reshaping part of Hyde Park Square. The locally owned juice bar is telling customers it isn’t going anywhere — even though its storefront is.
We are not going anywhere, said Mara Boord, founder of Green Farm Juicery. Hyde Park is home for Green Farm Juicery, and we are doing everything we can to stay close to the people who have supported us.
Why Green Farm Juicery Is Relocating Within Hyde Park
The building that houses Green Farm Juicery’s current location, at 2727 Erie Ave., recently sold as part of the ongoing Hyde Park Square redevelopment. Green Farm will eventually need to vacate the space. Rather than leave the neighborhood, the company has signed a lease to relocate just down the road. The new spot: 3431 Edwards Road, the former home of Macaron Bar.
Green Farm opened in Hyde Park in 2019, just months before COVID-19 upended the restaurant and retail landscape. Boord says that timing shaped the business from the outset.
We opened shortly before COVID, so resilience has been part of our story from the beginning, she said. Our employees and customers showed up for us then, and we believe we’ll get through this next chapter the same way.
Independent, locally owned businesses across Hyde Park and beyond have faced similar pressure recently, as rising costs and shifting commercial leases reshape which businesses can afford to stay put in some of Cincinnati’s most in-demand neighborhoods.
A Decade of Loyalty Fuels Green Farm Juicery’s Next Chapter
Since opening, the juice bar has built a following that stretches well beyond Hyde Park. It draws cold-pressed juice, smoothie, and wellness shot customers from across the Tri-State. Some stop in multiple times a day; others have been regulars for years. Boord says the mix sets the business apart: busy professionals, young families, athletes and people managing health challenges.
We’re not just another smoothie shop, Boord said. Our customers care deeply about quality, ingredients, and how they feel when they make Green Farm part of their routine.
For now, the current location remains open, and Green Farm has not announced an exact closing date. The company says it will keep communicating with customers as the redevelopment timeline becomes clearer.
We’re still here, we’re still open, and we’d love for people to keep coming in, Boord said. Hyde Park Square is still a great place, and we’re proud to be part of that.
What’s Next for Green Farm Juicery in Hyde Park
The new Edwards Road location will give Green Farm Juicery a more intimate grab-and-go footprint with dedicated parking. The company says it’s working to keep the transition seamless for subscribers and regulars once the move happens.
The developers are PLK Communities, the Loring Group and NorthPointe Group, the team behind the roughly $150 million Hyde Park Square project. Boord described the relationship with them as cooperative so far, even with many details still unsettled.
The developer has been good to work with so far, she said. There are still details we don’t know, but our focus is on staying positive, prepared, and continuing to provide excellent customer service and products to our customers.
Hyde Park Square has seen a wave of redevelopment activity in recent years. That activity has created uncertainty for several longtime businesses in the area. It’s part of a broader pattern of growth and change reshaping Cincinnati’s most desirable neighborhoods. Boord said Green Farm Juicery wanted to get ahead of that uncertainty by making its plans known early.
Neighborhoods change and grow, and Hyde Park is certainly no exception, Boord said. What won’t change is our commitment to providing high-quality products, exceptional service, and a welcoming environment for everyone who walks through our doors. We’re grateful for the support this community has shown us and are excited for what comes next.
Green Farm Juicery says that additional details about the new location, including an opening timeline, will be shared in the coming months.
FAQs
Why is Green Farm Juicery moving?
The building housing its current Hyde Park location, at 2727 Erie Ave., was sold to developers PLK Communities, the Loring Group, and NorthPointe Group as part of the Hyde Park Square redevelopment. Rather than leave the neighborhood, the company signed a lease at 3431 Edwards Road, the former Macaron Bar space.
Where is Green Farm Juicery relocating to?
3431 Edwards Road — just a short distance from its current location — with a target opening of late summer. The new space will have a smaller grab-and-go footprint with dedicated parking.
What is the Hyde Park Square redevelopment?
A $150 million mixed-use project spanning roughly 2.9 acres on the south side of the square, led by PLK Communities, the Loring Group, and NorthPointe Group. The latest plan calls for a six-story building with about 161 apartments, including 45 renovated units inside the existing À L’aise building.
Has this project faced opposition?
Yes. City Council approved an earlier, taller version in 2025, but opponents gathered enough signatures to force a referendum. Mayor Aftab Pureval asked Council to rescind the rezoning instead, sending developers back to revise the plan. It even came up in this year’s mayoral debate.
Has the redevelopment been approved yet?
Not fully. The city’s planning commission and City Council still have to vote on the revised June 2026 proposal, and no hearing dates have been set.
