Sustainability
Biological Control
We strive to grow healthier plants by reducing the use of pesticides in the production of our crops. Our current practices focus on the use of Biological Control Agents (“BCAs”). BCAs are beneficial insects that target and control pests and diseases naturally, allowing us to grow our plants greener and cleaner. Our biological control program consists of releasing parasitic wasps, nematodes, and a variety of beneficial mites to target white flies, aphids, thrips and fungus gnat larvae.
Commitment to Recycling
We’ve partnered with East Jordan Plastics to recycle the plastic pots and trays used on our farm. A working greenhouse uses a tremendous amount of plastic in production on a yearly basis. Currently, our plastic waste goes directly back to East Jordan Plastics, where they recycle and reuse the material. This allows our employees a safer working environment and provides our customers with a more environmentally friendly product.
