NATURAL RESOURCES DEPARTMENT ALIB GREENHOUSE
We received funding through the Rural Dividend fund to support this initiative
In partnership with OUC and Canada Job grant funding we put on a greenhouse management course. (10 members completed this course.)
This project was initiated after C&C approved the infrastructure improvements to the industrial park and has been on hold due to the project being delayed.
This project is dependent on water and power scheduled to be installed Spring 2020.
We will have approximately 7,000 plants growing in the greenhouse by spring of 2020.
Field crews collected and will continue to collect seeds.
