KINGSVILLE, ON - Following a successful Leamington greenhouse season, Double Diamond Farms is now at the heart of its TOV season and expecting more fantastic quality from the crop.
In fall of last year, Double Diamond made headlines for both gaining official non-GMO certification and completing an impressive 35 acre expansion of its greenhouse facilities in Kingsville, ON. Now harvesting out of the High Tech Greenhouse, volumes for TOVs are higher than ever.
“Volumes are up, we about doubled our TOV acreage this year to keep up with our growing customer demand,” Jeremy Stockwell, Director of Procurement and Sales for Double Diamond shared with me. “Quality has been fantastic.”
Stockwell added that the weather has been a big factor in the quality of the season, giving an extra boost in TOV production.
“This has been a fantastic year, the cold winter helped because we had lots of sunny days,” he says. “This helped the plant gain strength earlier, so quality and production should be better through the life of the crop.”
Double Diamond expects a decent return for this higher quality crop too. Market conditions are good and will be stable over the next couple of months, Jeremy says.
When I ask Jeremy what retailers should know about Double Diamond’s Kingsville TOV season, he again emphasized the great quality that the company has been continuing to offer.
“We have the best quality,” Stockwell concluded “This is a result of having full control of the plant from seed to harvest, to packing and shipping. We demand nothing but the highest standards from all levels of our operations.“
