ABOUT GREENHOUSE

-

Greenhouse is a Canadian organic beverage company that’s making it easier to get your daily dose of healthy greens.

Founded in 2014 by co-owners Emma Knight, Anthony Green, and Hana James, Greenhouse quickly gained a following of juice-lovers that were also looking for an efficient and sustainabl­e way to get in their greens!

Greenhouse offers a wide variety of plant-based food and drinks, all made with love in Canada. Their range includes cold-pressed juices, plant milks, lemonades, kombuchas, and more, all packaged in sustainabl­e glass bottles, ensuring healthy products of the highest quality. Cold-pressed juice is made using hydraulic pressure to extract liquid from plants, without denaturing enzymes or damaging nutrients with heat or oxidation. Using this method, Greenhouse can squeeze out every healthy drop from its organic ingredient­s, keeping nutritiona­l properties intact.

Drinking a big bottle of fruits and vegetables is an easy and efficient way to soak up nutritious, plant-based energy. As part of their support for sustainabl­e, non-toxic growing practices, Greenhouse juices are made from organic produce, meaning they use plants grown without chemicals, pesticides, or herbicides.

Much of the produce used in Greenhouse juices are purchased directly from local, organic farms. They also prioritize “seconds,” which are the misshapen fruits and vegetables that often end up in landfills. During Canada’s growing season, Greenhouse sends the fibrous byproducts of their fruit and vegetable juices back to local farms, where it is used as compost to help new crops grow.

Studies have also shown that chemicals used in plastic bottles (even the safest ones) can break down and filter into whatever liquid is being carried—especially when the bottle is exposed to heat or sunlight. That’s why Greenhouse chooses to bottle their delicious drinks in sustainabl­e glass bottles over plastic ones. Aside from being recyclable, glass bottles also last far longer than plastic and can be reused over and over without absorbing colours and odours the way plastic bottles do.

When producing drinks filled with healthy greens, as Greenhouse does, it just makes sense to package them in the healthiest way possible.
