CAN (ON): An adventure in the greenhouse

"Although it may be hard to believe, I had never been inside of a greenhouse before I started working at NatureFresh Farms," Brittany Macaulay writes at the NatureFresh blog. "I was recently hired for the Greenhouse Education Center Team this summer, and so I had the opportunity to be taken on an in-depth tour of NatureFresh Farms’ greenhouse facilities in preparation for my role. I went into my first greenhouse not quite knowing what to expect. To put it lightly, I was beyond impressed by the scale of their operation, the care being given to their plants, and the passion of the workers that I got to meet on-site. I could not believe the sheer amount of fruit that was being produced in this place on a daily basis – it seemed surreal that this was where my bell peppers and cucumbers were grown before being sent to my local grocery store. Although my tour only allowed me to scratch the surface of what greenhouse growing entails, as it is an extremely complex and intricate process, I consider the knowledge that I gained from the NatureFresh Farms team to be invaluable."
