Windset Farms' greenhouse expansion a testament to sustainability

Windset Farms planted its new 24-acre sustainably lit greenhouse expansion in Delta, BC. The new greenhouse — in conjunction with the addition of LED lighting in its existing greenhouse facility totaling 48 acres of Windset’s 92 acres in Delta — will be the largest lit facility in western North America.

Windset’s Santa Maria, CA, facility is currently one of the largest single-site vegetable greenhouse operations in the United States. The Delta expansion was completed by early summer, allowing Windset to utilize its increased capacity to better serve the local market year round.

This expansion is a testament to Windset’s commitment to sustainable year-round cultivation through use of renewable hydroelectric power and biomass boilers for heating. The new lit expansion will house various crops throughout the year supplying western Canada and the Pacific Northwest.

With over 2,500 acres of greenhouse vegetable production, Windset Farms customers can rely on consistent, high-quality supply with superior flavor and freshness from three regions across North America — British Columbia, California and Mexico — further lowering Windset’s carbon footprint. The company also reduces food waste by producing more locally grown product utilizing sustainable operations with thoughtful planning 365 days of the year.
