More than 200 players representing 13 different farms entered the Greenhouse Cup, demonstrating their skills and sportsmanship, competing in a friendly yet competitive environment. “The tournament was not only about football, but it also provided an opportunity for workers to connect, share experiences, and celebrate their contributions to Ontario's thriving greenhouse vegetable industry,” said Richard Lee, executive director, OGVG.

The day was filled with thrilling matches, building up to the award ceremony where medals and trophies were presented to the winners. Congratulations to Jem Farms in first place, Greenrise in second place and Hacienda North in third place.
