Those who had been curious about what goes on inside the massive greenhouse of Ontario Plants Propogation just West of Talbotville had opportunity to find out during a recent Open House. The family owned and operated business celebrated its 10th anniversary by inviting the public inside to tour and learn about what they do.
Ontario Plant’s President Jack Vanderkooy was moved by growing demand in the 1990s for greenhouse vegetable transplants, to start a vegetable propogation operation in 1999. In 2002 Ontario Plants Propogation was created near Shedden. With frequent expansions, the facility has reached 18 acres, plus will see completion of a 3-acre addition this summer.
