Facilities

Bosgraaf Greenhouses, Inc. rebuilt and expanded in 1981 and 1985.  In 1985 a complete wide span, tempered glass greenhouse was purchased in the Netherlands and shipped to Michigan.  It included a double heat-shade curtain system, hot water boilers, computerized burners and a waste flue heat condenser.  In addition it has a separate area for root zone propagation and another area for stock plants or finished plants with ebb and flow bench watering.

Four additional glass ranges were built in 1992, 1995, 1998, and in 2002.  Each range was built with a particular plant in mind for propagation and stock management.  Ebb and flow bench watering continues to be used exclusively for watering.  These areas are heated with hot water from very efficient low mass boilers in two separate boiler rooms.  High intensity lights are used throughout our facilities for supplemental light and photo-period length of day manipulation.
