We had a comment from one someone who kindly said they buy our product exclusively at Dandelion Foods.
We do not sell to Dandelion Foods.
You know you are getting our product if you see it in this crate and stand.
We would love to supply to everyone but we need to build more greenhouses.
Anyone in favour of that?

I know we take lettuce for granted but it is hard work to grow a great product.
We are very proud of our product but even more proud the customers who support us!

Well I know the chickens think it’s a Good Friday. They get to eat scraps of greenshaus lettuce😂

Of course there is a lettuce Tartan!

Celebrate International Tartan Day with Green Crunchy Summercrisp available at Brown’s, Mitchell’s and Jonsson’s Your Independent Grocers!

As many of you know we send our lettuce scraps to a farm on the Dwyer Hill Road. The animals love the leftovers and recently a couple of kids were born to nanny’s that eat the scraps.
Wouldn’t you know it the kids love the scraps too!

So the moral is if you want your kids to eat lettuce make sure it comes from greenshaus. 😂😂

About

Our greenhouses are designed and supplied by Ceres Greenhouse Solutions. The world leader in passive solar greenhouse design and technology.

Bauhaus and greenshaus

Bauhaus design philosophy is iconic. The philosophy influenced many great builders, artists and designers of the modern era. It also influenced us.

As we began thinking about building greenhouses for new age growers who want to practice environmentally sustainable methods, we discovered a connection between our design objectives, and Bauhaus principles. Our design/build ideas fit within the five essential Bauhaus principles of design.

Form follows function, True materials, Minimalist style, Gesamtkunstwerk, and Uniting art and technology.

1. Form Follows function

Form is applied because of it’s function not for its aesthetic appeal. Excessive ornamentation is avoided and utility comes first.

The shape and materials used to construct our greenhouses are simple and functional. The basic building is steel frame construction clad in insulated steel panels on the east, west, and north walls. Insulated steel panels are also used on the north roof, combined with triple glaze polycarbonate panels on the south roof and wall.

The shape and north/south orientation of the greenhouse maximizes the collection of light and heat to allow year round use in cold climates.

2. True materials

Materials should reflect the true nature of buildings. Building materials integral to construction like steel beams, fans and utilities are not hidden. The greenhouse is a large open space to allow light to be seen by the plants and all who enter.

3. Minimalist style

Only line, shape and colours matter to Bauhaus design. Anything unnecessary to functionality and material selection is excess and to be avoided. The white insulated steel panels, exposed steel frame and electrical wiring and utility installations of our greenhouse demonstrate clean lines and attention to detail without excess.

4. Gesamtkunstwerk

The Germans have a way with words it seems. Gesamt (total), kunst (art), werk (work). A building is not just an empty box. It is sum of everything added outside, inside and it’s placement as part of the design to form the overall concept and artistry of the building. We view our greenhouse as a functional work of art in a beautiful setting. Even our pond is functional. It will be used for rainwater collection for plant irrigation. In the winter a wonderful outdoor skating rink.
