VEGETABLES PRODUCTION
Jeffries Brothers produce a variety of vegetables including Asparagus, Red Beets, Carrots, Parsnips, Cauliflower, and Cabbage. Great care is taken through the growing season, from production to the harvesting and packaging of the final product, ensuring consistently high quality.
Clean air, clean water, cool nights, and warm sunny days during the growing season give Manitoba vegetables their high sugar content, intense colour, and great taste. Although harsh winters do not favour year round production, the freezing temperatures do serve as a natural environmental sterilant. This means Manitoba vegetables are unique in that they can be grown with less pesticide use and no soil fumigations. Manitoba is known for its high quality vegetables wherever they have been exported to. Lateral, or pivot irrigation systems provide clean water drawn directly from the Assiniboine River to supplement the natural summer rainfall..
