Highest standards of food safety

We’re dedicated to the highest levels of food safety in all aspects of our operation.

Our greenhouse staff have received extensive food safety training. Our food safety policies and procedures encompass guidelines that must be followed by every single person who comes into contact with our fresh produce. All workers and visitors must go through foot and hand sanitizing baths before entering the greenhouse.

Our grading and packaging operations are certified by Primus Labs. This certification assures buyers and consumers that the produce packed in our facilities has been handled in a food-safe manner. The Primus Labs audit assesses all aspects of food safety, including sanitation, maintenance, employees’ personal hygiene practices, employee training, general sanitary practices, pest control programs and more.

Controlling pests – naturally

Most people are concerned about the use of pesticides, as is Windset Farms. We use an integrated pest management system in our greenhouses. This means that we introduce ‘good bugs’ like ladybugs, preying mantis into our crops to eliminate the ‘bad bugs’ that damage the plants and fruit. Crop pollination is achieved by the use of bumblebees.

Non-GMO produce: non-genetically modified

Delicious, healthy produce is harvested from the plants growing inside Windset Farms greenhouses. These plants are grown from non-GMO seeds purchased from companies around the world.
