Greenhouses Housing Quebec Produce

Sprouting in 2016, Serres Toundra has carved out a place for itself as Quebec's largest cucumber producer

From the outset, our priority has always been to produce tasty, high-quality cucumbers, while minimizing our environmental footprint through innovative growing techniques. We sought to follow in Holland’s footsteps, a country renowned for its agricultural expertise, by spending nearly 6 months there. This immersion allowed us to discover the best technologies and adapt them to our climate and needs for food self-sufficiency.

Enlightened by this learning experience, we built a state-of-the-art greenhouse complex. We are still constantly striving to improve our farming practices in order to minimize our ecological footprint and offer you fresh, crisp cucumbers year-round.

Fun Fact

We don't use drinking water to grow our vegetables. Instead, they’re watered using our outdoor rainwater harvesting basin. Moreover, part of our greenhouses are heated using heat recovered from the nearby factory, thus reducing CO2 emissions.

Pushing the Boundaries of Eco-Responsibility

Striving for Sustainable Packaging

We’ve succeeded in replacing all the styrofoam in our packaging by developing a compostable cardboard tray. The plastic used in our mini-cucumber packaging can be entirely recycled.

Reducing Landfills

Our shredder allows us to considerably reduce waste. We also burn leaf residues.

A Relish That Keeps on Giving

With our crooked cucumbers, we concoct a crunchy relish, thus contributing to the circular economy.

No Wasted Water

No drinking water is used to water our vegetables — we have a rainwater harvesting basin that supplies our growing needs.

Speaking of Water

We recover hot water from the nearby factory to heat part of our greenhouses.

GMO-Free

Just like Mother Nature intended, our cucumbers are genetically unmodified.
