In the near future, a Dallas homeowner may make a trip to Lowe’s to buy a flat of floral bedding plants grown in the Mesilla Valley.
That’s the vision Mark Wong, founding partner of Colorado Financial Holdings, shared with state and local dignitaries Oct. 19 when Gov. Susana Martinez announced New Mexico Greenhouse Holdings LLC (NMGH) will expand into New Mexico.
NMGH is a partnership of Colorado Financial Holdings and Olson’s Greenhouse Gardens, a commercial grower with facilities in Utah and Colorado.
The company will invest $6 million to rehabilitate the former Aldershot of New Mexico greenhouse at 4884 S. Main St., which will be equipped with state-of-the-art water purification and recycling systems.
