But what is a B Corp?
Basically, it's a certification awarded by B Lab, a non-profit organisation. It certifies that we have passed their B Impact Assessment with flying colours and that we meet their requirements for social and environmental performance, accountability and transparency.
Why it's important to us
Because it reflects our values
We have always been committed to producing healthy, local and sustainable food. This certification is a reflection of our beliefs: to do right by the planet, by people and by our communities.
Because it makes us proud
We are the first greenhouse growers in Canada to achieve this certification. This sets us apart as an environmentally responsible leader in our industry.
Because we are joining an inspiring community
Being a B Corp means being part of a network of companies that share our ambitions for a fairer and more sustainable world. Together, we share our ideas and move in the same direction.
Because we always aim higher
Certification is not an end in itself. We are committed to continually improving our impact, both on the environment and on our employees and partners.
And then?
We don't stop there! Our long term goals as a B Corp are to constantly outperform ourselves and get better every year. This means:
Innovate even more for agriculture that respects natural resources.
Supporting our communities and our overseas employees with an ever-improving living and working environment.
Become a source of inspiration for other farming businesses by showing that a greener future is possible.
We're very proud of this step, but it's also thanks to you. Thank you for joining us in our mission to make the world a better place, one vegetable at a time.
