Organic Greenhouse

The Greenhouse

We aim for plants that are "vigourous and transplant-hardy"



After many years of being certified organic, we've decided to be uncertified but still organic. We'll follow the organic greenhouse production standards, as we have since 1994, but we won't be able to use the 'o' word to describe our plants or our farm unless we again become certified organic. Please call or email if you need clarification. Thanks!

We buy our seeds from Prairie Garden Seeds (www.prseeds.ca), Heritage Harvest Seed (www.heritageharvestseed.com), William Dam Seeds (www.damseeds.com), and T&T Seeds (www.ttseeds.com).

ROOM TO GROW  remains distinctive by:

* Specializing in a diversity of medicinal and culinary herb seedlings. You'll also find open pollinated vegetable seedlings, some 'come-from-away' and native perennial flower seedlings and annual flower seedlings.

* Being the first commercial greenhouse in Manitoba to offer certified organic bedding plants - from 1994 to 2007. We continue to grow according to organic standards but are no long certified.

* Using mostly local ingredients in the growing mix: (Commercial soil mixes have wetting agents that are not acceptable for organic growers.) compost made from horse manure and plant residue, flax shives (a waste material from the flax straw rendering process), Manitoba peat moss, and  local sand. The only fertilizer we use is a 'tea' made from our compost. We're experimenting with an organic micorrhizal innoculant in the mix to stimulate improved nutrient uptake.

* Basing the business at home so that the greenhouse can be heated with wood harvested from the surrounding poplar forest. (And so we can have a fairly sane family life.)
