FVGC publishes greenhouse investment road map

Greenhouse investment was highlighted in the Liberal platform as a key priority, and the Fruit and Vegetable Growers of Canada’s (FVGC) Greenhouse Vegetable Working Group has developed a roadmap to help turn that commitment into meaningful results. 

The roadmap includes clear, actionable recommendations:

  1. Support expansion of production capacity and crop diversification

  2. Incentivize sustainable, year-round domestic food production and trade

  3. Address investment barriers by reducing cumulative red tape

  4. Recognize the importance of housing, healthcare, and rural transit

  5. Increase funding to advance sector-prioritized research

With the government signaling its intent to invest, FVGC’s Greenhouse Vegetable Working Group is providing a clear and practical path forward that supports food security, economic growth, and innovation.
