A kale contract with a Midwest juicing company based in Berkley, MI.  The farm also services 2 large high end grocery stores.  The farm has sales that have grown substantially over the past 5 years, with a lot of room to grow.

          The pole barn is 48’x30’ and houses a 12’x9’ walk in cooler.

          There are 4 unheated season extending cold frame greenhouses each 20’x96’ with extended side heights for additional growing space.  There is also one 30’x48’ heated greenhouse with a 200’000 btu gas forced air furnace. The heated greenhouse includes nine 4’x8’ planting tables.
