Sensei Farms grows baby spinach in Ontario greenhouse

Sensei Farms has announced the arrival of baby spinach, the latest addition to the indoor-grown produce brand’s retail line of leafy greens. Grown fresh, year-round out of the company’s 30-acre Ontario greenhouse in Leamington, Sensei Farms Baby Spinach is available now at participating Safeway and Acme grocery store locations across the U.S. mid-Atlantic region. 

“Our goal is to deliver the freshest, responsibly grown fruits and vegetables throughout the year,” says Jessica Vasisht, Sensei Farms’ senior vice-president of sales and marketing.

“We’re eager to add Sensei Farms Baby Spinach to our line-up and excited to continue expanding our portfolio over the next year.” 

According to the company’s team of sensory experts and growers, Sensei Farms Baby Spinach has a delicate texture, mild flavour and delicious taste. Enjoyable raw, steamed or sauteed, Sensei Farms Baby Spinach makes a great salad base, or a nutrient-rich smoothie ingredient.  It’s also pesticide-free and non-GMO.

All of Sensei Farms’ leafy greens varieties, including baby spinach, are available in the brand’s more-sustainable packaging, featuring a recyclable, moisture-resistant paperboard tray, 360-degree product visibility and “peel and reseal” closure.

Supplemental Nitrogen on Soybeans: Can Early Nitrogen Increase Yield?

Video: Supplemental Nitrogen on Soybeans: Can Early Nitrogen Increase Yield?

Can supplemental nitrogen help soybeans reach higher yield potential? Technical Agronomist Tim Sickman walks through an ongoing trial at the Nutrien Innovation Farm in Owensboro, Kentucky, exploring whether a modest amount of nitrogen applied at planting can support higher-yielding soybean environments.

The trial compares 30 pounds of supplemental nitrogen across both 15- and 30-inch rows, along with treatments that include sulfur and micronutrients. Similar trials conducted in 2024 and 2025 delivered a six- to seven-bushel yield response, prompting the team to expand the research this season.

Early observations show that treated soybeans are slightly taller and averaging about two additional nodes on the main stem. These added nodes could create more opportunities for blooms and pods, but the true results will come at harvest when the team evaluates pod development, seed fill and final yield.
