Our system grows 120,000 lettuce at any one time. If laid end to end the growing pipes would stretch for 30 kilometers. It only covers an area of approximately 3 hectares and is ultra water efficient, using one eighth of the water to grow the same product as that grown in the ground. The product grows quicker (3.5 weeks from seedling to harvest in summer) and uses greatly reduced chemicals to do so.
We distribute lettuce throughout the Northwest and into Newcastle Markets.
