Lake Worth, Florida-based Green Life Farms has expanded distribution to more than 280 Publix stores in the Tampa and Fort Myers area.
Green Life Farms serves 270 Publix locations in South Florida. With 13 farms planned in the Southeast U.S., the company will continue to expand its sales territory with a variety of retailers as it grows.
Its products include baby arugula, butterhead lettuce, butterhead leaves, baby green leaf, rustic red blend, farmer’s blend, super variety blend and basil. Green Life Farms greens can be purchased at retail locations, specialty markets and restaurants across Florida and beyond; products vary by location.
The company also sells leafy greens to a major meal-kit delivery service provider and partners with local food banks.
“Green Life Farms is delighted to work with Publix to provide fresh, clean, locally-grown leafy greens to their customers,” said John Hallé Jr., sales manager. “We are pleased to work with a company that shares our values of reducing waste, improving customer value and providing quality products to our neighbors who buy them.”
Green Life Farms’ process combines technology with agricultural best practices to grow leafy greens with a focus on sustainability, energy efficiency and environmental responsibility. Its clean, flavorful produce is cultivated in nutrient-rich water in its greenhouses. Greens are harvested and packaged in a controlled environment and delivered locally to ensure freshness, outstanding flavor and longer shelf life, with a lower carbon footprint than field-grown produce.
Green Life Farms operates hydroponic greenhouses in Lake Worth and Punta Gorda, Florida. Another 11 additional facilities are in construction or development, for 5.2 million square feet of greenhouses planned.
