HandIt is our people who give meaning to our 4 core values. We are very fortunate to have staff who share our passion for delivering the highest quality product and who are dedicated to serving our customers. We like to think it's a response to the way we treat our people at Intergrow. We encourage team building activities among our staff and strive to live by our philosophy of people, planet, profit.

Every season we accept students from around the world into our intern program. They learn our sustainable growing methods and leave with professional, hands-on knowledge of the greenhouse operations and a respect for responsible growing methods. It's another way we're working to grow a sustainable future.

To imagine the differences between here and Brazil…

In Brazil, one week before departing to the US:
