How is Greenhouse Produce Grown?

How is Greenhouse Produce Grown?

Ever walked into the produce section of your grocery store and wonder how it was grown? It’s an important process to make sure that fresh produce is grown in quality conditions and is available when you need it. As a greenhouse grower of tomato varieties, seedless cucumbers, sweet bell peppers, and eggplant, our goal is to offer the freshest vegetables to our customers year-round. We’re able to accomplish this goal through a process called the "hydroponic growing process," a method of growing plants without soil, so that all of the vegetables are grown in a greenhouse. There is a lot of care and efficiency that goes into making the best quality produce available year-round and we invite you to take a look to see how our pesticide-free, non-GMO produce is grown! Through the use of our industry-setting hydroponic growing process, the greenhouse is not only controlled by a computer for temperature, humidity, and many other factors, but we also use employees to check for growth, pest management, and freshness. Along with employees and computers, we even use a little help from our bumblebees! Bumblebees help increase pollination in a natural and more efficient manner. This is our progressive way of using all available resources to help grow the freshest produce possible, using both technology and innovation, along with the skillset instilled in man that has been passed down from generation to generation for centuries! So the next time you go to the store and see the Red Sun Farms logo, you can shop with confidence in knowing that you are receiving some of the greenest and freshest produce around!
