DELTA, British Columbia — WINDSET FARMS® has received the Environmental Impact Award at the Greater Vancouver Board of Trade’s fifth annual Business Distinction Awards, recognizing its commitment to resource-efficient greenhouse production.

Windset’s investments in renewable hydroelectricity, energy-efficient LED lighting, water recycling and advanced climate controls support a clear objective: growing premium vegetables more efficiently while delivering consistent quality and reliable, year-round supply.

Celebrating three decades as a family-owned grower, the company’s greenhouse operations span 298 acres, including 130 acres in Delta, British Columbia. With 86 acres of ultra-lit production, the Delta site is the largest lit greenhouse vegetable facility in Western North America.
