PUNTA GORDA, Fla.–Green Life Farms has added Farmer Joe’s, a brand-new 55,000 square foot market in Cape Coral, FL to its long list of retail partners. Farmer Joe’s is the first Florida location to carry all 11 of Green Life Farms’ herb varieties, along with its baby leafy greens and Butterhead Lettuce. Green Life Farms’ products are prominently featured in Farmer Joe’s 13,000 square foot produce section.
Green Life Farms hydroponically grows basil, chives, cilantro, dill, mint, parsley, oregano, rosemary, sage, tarragon and thyme at its Punta Gorda, FL farm. Living herbs are sold in grocery stores in individual pots and are also bagged for sale to a meal-kit delivery company under a long-term contract. All Green Life Farms products are grown using non-GMO seeds, using efficient hydroponic systems that require 90% less water than conventional farming, and no pesticides. With two operating farms in Lake Worth and Punta Gorda, FL, and another under construction in Lake City, FL, Green Life Farms is rapidly expanding to 13 planned locations across the Southeast U.S.
Farmer Joe’s is a new 55,000 square foot grocery store which opened last week in Cape Coral, FL. The store features one of the largest produce departments in the state and purchases the majority of its produce locally. Farmer Joe’s is an independent family owned and operated grocery store.
