Our greenhouses have taken on a whole new appearance. We have transitioned them into totally sustainable agricultural production.
I was inspired by the film "Fresh" and visited Growing Power in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. After a tour of their facility we decided this was the way for us also.
We are expanding our produce production from the outdoor gardens to growing micro greens and sprouts year round in the greenhouses.
As summer closes we will be planting peppers, tomatoes, cucumbers, and french beans, along with herbs indoor for winter harvest with the greens and sprouts.
Bonnie, our Herbalist, always emphasizes good nutrition to help heal ones body. Why not implement that concept into our facility and aid her clients even further by offering to them quality organic foods. We have many walk in customers who enjoy having locally grown organic produce at their disposal.
Our main customers for our sustainable organic food production are local restaurants and co-ops.
Currently we are growing micro greens such as:
Arugula
Spinach
Kale
Beet Greens
