Happy #CdnAgDay! Every year, this day reminds us of all the countless people from coast to coast to coast who work hard to grow the food we enjoy.
"Buying local" has made headlines recently, but it's the status quo here at Growcer. Modular vertical farms unlock local food production for communities and are part of the mix of resilient food systems.
Today we celebrate the food we love and the people who grow it - whether it's in a field, barn, or vertical farm!

Now more than ever, students are examining their options when it comes to where to go after high school.
Educators know that ROI is a factor when students think about which post-secondary institution to pick.
Durham College did not shy away from the challenge and created an Urban Farm that serves as a hub for learning, research, and community engagement.
By adding a vertical farm, the school was able to:
• Meet their sustainability goals and increase the freshness of their on-campus dining
• Enhance student engagement with hands-on opportunities
• Research with a new type of growing technology to keep agriculture programs current

With discussions swirling about how U.S. tariffs can impact Canada, now is the perfect time to think about increasing local food production.
Did You Know? Canada imports 90% of its leafy greens, a majority coming from the United States.
But growth in greenhouses and vertical farming have allowed Canada to become more self-sufficient and less reliant on imports.
With Growcer, this impact is seen instantly.
Like when Muskoka North Good Food Co-op started growing greens steps away from their store and were able to stop buying greens from out of country.
The store gave their customers more affordable and fresher options for their plates, while minimizing the shocks they experience from trade relations, currency fluctuations, and weather disruptions.
