Dear Grower,

These are times of incredible opportunity for hydroponic greenhouse vegetable growers! The recent incidents and ongoing concerns over e.coli in field-grown crops has consumers and retailers looking for produce that they know is safe.

Hydroponic greenhouse produce offers that safety – the closed circulation system used in hydroponic growing eliminates the opportunity for contaminants to find their way to the plants. Add to that the bonus that hydroponic greenhouse produce is fresher than that which is transported thousands of miles, and is tastier than field grown. This means that you have an unbeatable combination to offer retailers and consumers.

Greenhouse-grown vegetable crops are in growing demand and this trend is sure to continue! Regionally, consumer appetite continues to increase for locally grown product. Farmer’s Markets are thriving and growers are getting record prices for their tomatoes and other crops! People want to know where their produce comes from and like the idea of buying them from someone they can trust.
