Becoming the best
We started hydroponic farming in 2014 as an experiment project to grow sustainable, healthy food for house hold usage. About a year had passed and the project had expanded from 3 55 gal drums to our first green house (40 ft length by 20 ft width). At first we were growing many different types of crops such as eggplant, lettuce, hot and sweet peppers, celery, etc. What we had realized early on was that if we wanted to make this into a business we needed to think outside the box and grow something that was healthy, affordable and completely different from what everyone else was doing.
After some research and speaking to family and friends in North America and also consulting doctors here locally, we feel upon kale. Guyana has a very high diabetic population, many people suffer from illnesses from as young as 25 years old. As a Guyanese culture we have a rich taste in food and poor dieting. This leads to very unhealthy habits of eating and in turn leads to many various illnesses. Supplementing kale and leafy greens into your diet can help counter and prevent many of these sicknesses.
The health benefits of kale have been enjoyed since ancient Rome, and history tells us that it was one of the most popular green leafy vegetables of the Middle Ages. Kale comes from the Acephala group of the Brassica oleracea (oleracea var) species that includes collard greens. There are two main varieties of kale: one that has green leaves and one that has purple. Interestingly, the central leaves do not form a head, which is one reason why kale is considered to be more closely related to wild cabbage than most domesticated forms of vegetables.
