The Lettuce Farm
is a 100% artificially lit, controlled environment
agricultural (cea) hydroponics lettuce production system. We are located at
61 Hamilton Ave., St John’s,
Newfoundland, Canada. Commercial production at our current facility commenced in June, 1998.
The five thousand square foot, controlled environment agricultural
(cea) hydroponics lettuce production system and associated processes, used by The Lettuce Farm,
were designed and constructed by Snellen Holdings (1994) Company Limited. To the best of our knowledge The Lettuce Farm is the largest
commercial controlled environment agricultural (cea) hydroponics lettuce farm in the world operating without sunlight.

Our Mission

permanent, sustainable employment in the communities in which they will be deployed.
