Canadian grower Hilco Tamminga has passed away, his son Josh Tamminga has announced. "With deep sadness and a loss for words. I feel it is best to tell the community he was a huge part of that my father, Hilco Tamminga passed away suddenly yesterday," said Josh.
Hilco was highly valued by his family members, friends, colleagues, and industry relations. Described as a kind an intelligent family man, an honest and hard worker, an inspiration, an a humble and truly nice, integer person to work with. "He made people feel like they each had a place in life."

"No one was humbler, worked harder, or cared for others like him. He was a major part of building several beautiful companies and teams of people. Cedarline, Truly Green, TamBerry, and now TamFarms. His tomatoes or peppers were secondary in his life. Serving Jesus and his loved ones was the highest calling. He would "multitask" not to get more tomatoes, but to touch more lives. Please pray for the family here, we will miss him."
