Mucci Farms' Nick Williamson Dishes on Doubling Strawberry Acreage and Year-Round Program
KINGSVILLE, ON - Mucci Farms is a greenhouse grower with innovation on the brain. As the company looks to broaden its scope beyond ubiquitous greenhouse categories, the company is going gaga over its Smuccies strawberries. I tapped Mucci Farms's Key Account Manager, Nick Williamson, to give me the scoop on this sweet treat.
"One of our most exciting items right now is the Smuccies strawberry, grown in Kingsville, Ontario year-round," Nick shared with me. "Right now we are growing under 12 acres of high-tech glass and we now have a plan to double that acreage for 24 acres of greenhouse grown strawberries in Canada!"
As Nick tells it, growing these strawberries in a controlled environment allows the company to deliver a final product that the company has full faith in.
Nick's enthusiasm for this line is contagious. To catch more of the strawberry buzz, check out my interview with him, above.
