“We are honored to be the exclusive greenhouse vegetable supplier for ACF Culinary Team USA,” Jim DiMenna, President and CEO for Red Sun Farms, said in a press release. “The establishment of our first US-based greenhouse, and other US-based corporate investments, led to partnering with ACF Culinary Team USA.
