Our Story
“What made you start a greenhouse?” That’s the most common question we’re asked. It began when Tim’s brother, Alex, decided he wanted to retire from farming, Tim and I decided that we’d carry on farming the conventional way, as his family has been doing on this homestead for over 100 years.
Then it became apparent that we couldn’t farm conventionally, due to several issues --not the least of which being the fact that I can’t “fix”. So...that would mean that if I (while driving some kind of machinery) broke down in the field I was in, Tim would have to leave his field and come fix my break-down. Two fields down at once would become crippling.
We had decided earlier that having a small greenhouse for our own use would be nice. Then the farmer in me kicked in and the size kept changing to allow for more production and then maybe supplying the local Sobeys store in Humboldt. Now I was looking at supplementing our farming income with the greenhouse I wanted to build. Humboldt Sobeys Manager Dave Doepker was enthusiastic about the idea, and so....
Once we realized that my contributions to conventional farming would be minimal and the burden on Tim would be enormous, we gave it to God in prayer. What should we do? It came to us that we could take our “Plan B” (the greenhouse) and make it our actual program. It also came to us that this greenhouse needed to be Pesticide Free and Non-GMO, since the enormous amount of illness that has swept the country like wildfire has to have a common thread--and we think that one “common thread” is “stuff” that is put into the food we eat.
