Victorian-based firm Katunga Fresh has lodged plans with Sunshine Coast Council to build a $60 million facility on a Maroochy River property.
It wants to build six greenhouses which when complete would cover 15 hectares of growing area. Katunga Fresh initially intends to dedicate that space solely to cucumbers.
The proposed development also includes workers' accommodation for up to 20 people as well as a home and dam at the Yandina Bli Bli Road site.
