OGVG Wins 2006 Regional Premier's Award

The Ontario Greenhouse Vegetable Growers earned more than a passing grade for their innovation. They introduced the Healthy Hearts, Healthy Minds (HHHM) school program in 2004 to improve the eating habits of today's youth by providing healthy alternatives to schools. The program also provides producers with the opportunity to educate teachers, students and parents about the nutritional value of Ontario Greenhouse Vegetables, the benefits of healthy eating and greenhouse vegetable production. The HHHM program has been trademarked.
