We are greenhouse testing this month 8/09, new cooling pads and bank of 30,000 CFM fans will allow us to grow annually through the Florida summer heat, without stress. Also installed, New 15,000 gallon chilled nutrient tanks, and fully insulated irrigation supply/returns. With 1 acre under glass we will be able to supply the Bay area with local farm grown foods during the long off season. In addition to traditional CNG farming practices, this hydroponic section will utilize 100% organic feeds. I have used IPM programs for nearly a decade and will continue to expand this method as our choice of preventative control. The greenhouses will have 50 mesh (no thrip aphid) screen vestibules and wipe pads for access.

CNG organic produce 7 months, Hydroponic greenhouse 12 months (365 days), Weekly scheduled pick-up schedules and regional delivery points. We are setting up a seasonal shopping basket that will allow members to select the foods they like best within there tier. More details to be announced soon. We are researching using regional farmers markets as a destination for people (or the elderly) without transportation.
