NatureFresh Farms, Canada, introduced new sustainable practices, including a new eco-friendly compostable tray for its conventional and organic mini cucumbers.
In addition to the new compostable tray, the greenhouse expansion, which is expected to be complete this summer, will assist in meeting the company’s sustainability initiatives by reducing food miles with more locally-grown produce. Once complete, the expansion will increase the production and efficiency of providing year-round produce. The new facility will also grow more tomato assortments, with supplemental lighting assisting in year-round production.
