Growers helping Growers

 

I would like to invite greenhouse growers to follow Grower2Grower on Facebook.  To be honest I am not that familiar with Facebook yet as I have only recently joined the social network.   I am not sure how many greenhouse growers are using this platform.  My aim is to achieve a live forum for growers, where they can share ideas and thoughts, or any concerns they have and are able to get feedback from their peers.  You can email, via the site, any topics/comments you would like published for your peers to comment on.

I see information flow as critical for continuing to upskill and improve.   As growers we are competitors and team mates.  If we can all help each other grow good products then we can increase the strength of our brand.   No grower wants to see another grower fail.  Unless you are an outdoor grower in Queensland and hit by a flood in the middle of the NZ winter!

There are other social media outlets with great international stories but I want what is relevant for our growers today.  Please feel free to ‘like’ and follow the Grower2Grower Facebook site, all are welcome.

 

I appreciate your comments.  Please feel free to comment below or on the grower2grower Facebook page:
