Going Green with Bashaw Valley Greenhouse
I am sure all of you have heard the buzz word going around "Going Green". Here
at Bashaw Valley Greenhouse we are trying to do our part in recycling as well
as other aspects of going green. First of all most people think just throwing
your plastics in your recycling container is doing their part, unfortunately it is a
lot more complicated than that. Not only does everyone have to do there part in
recycling there also has to be a demand for that recycled product, rather than
burning it or ending up in a land fill some place. Most greenhouses are already
using containers made partially of post consumer recycled plastics. Bashaw
Valley Greenhouse is taking this a step further by now offering a cash credit of
$.25 per returned plastic heavy duty web flat/carrying tray which originated
from our greenhouse. Every heavy duty flat which is returned must be clean
and can not be cracked or damaged in any way!

Custom Moss Basket Growing Green Program
Another service which we offer at Bashaw Valley is your own personalized custom moss basket grown to your
specifications. This program is offered in both 16" and 20" Braun wire baskets with a moss mat liner only. You can
choose from a variety of plants in many colors, from full sun to shade to customize your basket. After enjoying your
basket all summer long, you can return the wire portion of your basket which will be replanted using a new liner. In
return you will receive a $5.00 credit when you pick up your newly grown basket. These are large baskets which
require a heavy support to hang from. Many people have already taken advantage of this program and you are
welcome to join them. The City of Shell Lake baskets are a prime example of our custom moss basket growing
program. The city does a great job of maintaining the baskets throughout the summer. This is one way in which all of
us can do our part in reusing or recycling of our containers and baskets.

| Organically grown Strawberries Bashaw Valley Farm & Greenhouse has always been known for its organically grown blueberries. In 2009 we added u-pick & picked raspberries. We now offer u-pick as well as picked organic strawberries. We are also experimenting with sour cherries, plums and pears. After a bumper berry crop in 2011 we now offer frozen blueberries, strawberries & raspberries for retail sales, now available in our store. If things go as planned we hope to offer some plums, cherries and pears in 2012. |
| New for 2010 Bashaw Valley Farm is now Certified USDA Organic on all of our blueberry, raspberry, strawberry and asparagus production. |
| Greatly Expanded for 2012 our own Rusty Metal Garden Art |
| We are now set up for self-service on our frozen Blueberries, Strawberries and Raspberries as well as our all natural Grass-fed Angus Beef. |
| We now make our own Rusty Metal Garden Art. Each piece is individually hand-crafted so there are no two alike. These are built to give you years of enjoyment in your garden. The more they rust the character they get. Thanks for your great response in 2011 look for our new designs and added selection in 2012. |
| All Natural Grass Fed Home Grown Beef In 2009 we expanded by selling our own home grown all natural Grass-fed Angus/cross bred beef, we have raised beef for a number of years now but have always sold them as feeders(500-600#) in the past. After the push for locally grown and healthier Grass-fed meat we decided to give this a try. Angus Beef is now available year round in our retail store. |
