Growing For Good
Since 2011, we have been revolutionizing farming to ensure Canadians coast-to-coast have access to delicious, nutrient-dense greens 365 days a year – grown sustainably, safely and pesticide-free.
GOOD FOR YOU, GOOD FOR OUR PLANET
We are driven by a belief that you deserve better produce and our planet deserves a better food system. That means produce grown close-to-home so it doesn’t lose its flavour, freshness and nutritional value in transit. Produce that’s free of pesticides. Produce that’s grown with less water and less land so we can continue to grow for future generations.
BETTER PRODUCE, LESS IMPACT
Our Indoor Vertical Farms optimize every aspect of the growing process from seed to harvest to give you more while taking less from our planet
GROWN IN CANADA
Did you know that up to 90% of leafy greens in Canada are imported, losing as much as 40% of their nutritional value in transit? By growing close to the communities we serve, we offer a secure supply of nutrient-dense greens that stay fresher, longer.
NO PESTICIDES
Our greens are grown free of pesticides, herbicides and fungicides – eliminating the need for chlorine baths or triple washing which can damage plants and limit shelf life.
READY TO EAT
Thanks to our controlled environment, we have no need for harmful chemicals anywhere in our process. This means you can enjoy our ready-to-eat greens, right out of the pack!
97% LESS WATER
Our farms are equipped with precision watering systems to grow our produce using 97 percent less water than traditional field farming. In fact, our grow room recycles 95% of the water it uses, even re-capturing the condensation from inside the growing environment!
90% LESS LAND
By growing up, not out – we’re able to preserve our land for future generations, using 90% less land and producing 53x more kg of produce per square meter/year vs. traditional open-field farming.
SAFETY
We’re proud to say our farms hold the highest level of Safe Quality Food (SQF) certification, a globally recognized gold standard for food safety and quality protocols within the industry.
