What You Need to Succeed:

A Proper Business Plan
Before you purchase your first piece of equipment, land, fish or seeds, prepare a proper business plan.  If you are financing your project, this is essential.  A business plan lets you project your costs, income, expansion, labor requirements, equipment designs and plans for operating your business.  Nelson/Pade can help you with this process and can provide you with the information you need to take to your bank.

Know the Real Cost of Your Project!
Nelson/Pade can provide you with precise cost estimates for starting your project.  Even the "turn-key" greenhouse packages don't include everything you need.  Success comes from proper planning and adequate funding.  Let Nelson/Pade help you determine what it costs to get started!

Select the Right Equipment and Culture System!
With experience in traditional, naturally ventilated and retractable roof greenhouses, Nelson/Pade can assist you in choosing the right greenhouse and growing system for your crops and climate.    

Earn Extra Income Your First Year Growing!
With construction assistance from Nelson/Pade, you will finish construction sooner, plant sooner and begin earning money sooner! Plus, you’ll have their experience-based input which will contribute toward a successful crop and profitable business! Their cost-saving tips will put money in your pocket and their expertise will ensure a properly-built greenhouse.

Get Help When You Need It!
Nelson/Pade can be involved from the initial site survey and business planning all the way through construction, assembling the growing system, seeding the first crop and even marketing….or any portion of the process you wish.   They can assist in finding the right contractors when needed.  They are willing to travel to your site and can provide experienced greenhouse assemblers if you need extra construction assistance!

Grow Better, Before Bigger!
You can increase you net income without increasing the square footage of your greenhouse!  Nelson/Pade works with growers to increase their income through better growing techniques and implementing new and innovative methods.   Expansion of the greenhouse should come after you’ve learned to maximize your growing system.
