Busy times at Foertmeyer last Saturday! The Ohio-based plant nursery built a completely new greenhouse facility and opened its doors this weekend for the Cultivate Greenhouse Production Tour, as well as other interested guests. And again, there were many. Not too much of a surprise, as several modern-day technologies were shown, combined with a great barbecue.

Last year, Mark Foertmeyer already welcomed visitors into his facility, which back then was being finalized. This year proved to be a completely different experience, as instead of super hot Ohio sun, the day brought extensive rains and thunderstorms. Although the noise in the facility was quite overwhelming, the fact the greenhouse did not leak anywhere improved many visitors.

During the open house, several suppliers showed what they contributed to the project. Rovero showed how their different structures HortiHouse and Rollair help deal with the different plant requests and climatical circumstances. The BioTherm team told how their StarFin heating system is powered by 24,000,000 BTU Raypak boilers. Damatex provided the climate system, Erfgoed the ebb and flood floors, and WPS showed their various automation solutions installed.
