BrightFarms Inc., announced that it has completed the upgrade project at its Bucks County (PA) greenhouse farm, which is enabling BrightFarms to more efficiently grow baby greens.
The upgraded growing system, which uses deep flow hydroponics, improves quality by reducing handling and streamlining harvesting and post-harvesting. It will also allow BrightFarms to meet increasing demand by planting more densely within the existing greenhouse structure.
The 56,000 square foot greenhouse farm in Lower Makefield Township supplies fresh produce to BrightFarms’ retail partners McCaffrey’s Market and the Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company.
“As a local producer, we have close – even personal – relationships with our customers, and we’re eager to satisfy their appetites,” says BrightFarms CEO Paul Lightfoot. “We look forward to being back on the shelves in April."
