Valleyfield greenhouse
Green Organic Dutchman's Valleyfield greenhouse is an 820,000-square-foot (76,000 m2) facility on Boulevard Gérard-Cadieux in Valleyfield, Quebec (45.234°N 74.106°W).[3][4] Power rates the company secured were reported to be 4 cents per kilowatt-hour, attributed to the nearby Beauharnois Hydroelectric Generating Station.[5] The greenhouse, when completed, will be over twice the area of Tweed Farms, Canada's largest cannabis greenhouse in 2014. The Valleyfield greenhouse was still under "early phase" of construction in mid 2018.[6]
