OGVG growers utilize the latest advances in hydroponic technology, computerized climate control and integrated pest management to ensure that the vegetables you eat are safe, fresh and nutritious. The controlled greenhouse environment enables our producers to grow a uniform crop that minimizes waste and maximizes yield and quality, 365 days of the year. Our tomatoes, cucumbers and peppers are grown in a nutrient-rich water solution, which results in higher yields. Greenhouse farming is very efficient and allows Ontario growers to yield up to

Outdoor agriculture is more susceptible to pest interference, like insects, rodents, disease and weeds, but a greenhouse structure acts as a barrier to such intruders, and limits the need for pesticide use in the greenhouse.
