Mystery Creek Fieldays, that’s a wrap, and wow, the rural (and urban) community were incredibly receptive to our latest product offerings. We enjoyed a steady stream of visitors throughout the event.
PrimeHort’s focus at Mystery Creek, along with our traditional line-up of nursery supplies, was to highlight our smart new range of Polycarbonate Kitset Greenhouses suitable for home gardeners, lifestyle block owners, farmers, small nurseries – basically anyone with a green thumb!
We ran a competition, “make an offer on the greenhouse” and more than 95 people made an educated offer. The highest bidder became the proud owner of a fantastic new polycarbonate greenhouse.
Overall there was a ‘cautiously optimistic’ vibe at Fieldays. According to the latest SOPI Report for Horticulture/Viticulture, export revenue is forecast to be up 1% by end of June 24, which is bucking the trend against the rest of the primary industries. Let’s hope that translates to an industry feeling more comfortable about the road ahead.
One thing we do know – the prices on fresh fruit and vegetables continues to rise. Consumers are also getting savvier with their food choices, desiring less processed food and more organic, healthy alternatives. A practical and affordable solution to both issues is a Kitset Polycarbonate Greenhouse.
We scoured the globe for a perfect greenhouse range for residential customers. For many, the ‘backyard’ is a handkerchief size, while for others there is room for a couple of greenhouses. So we are thrilled to introduce an assortment of polycarbonate greenhouses, from 2x3m to 3x8m to suit individual preferences.
The benefits of a Kitset Greenhouse at home:
- Affordable: Polycarbonate greenhouses are more cost-effective than glass structures, making them a budget-friendly option for home gardeners.
- Endless Fresh Produce: Growing seasons can be extended, allowing a bounty of fresh produce all-year round, with protection from harsh weather and pests.
- Durable: Our 6mm thick polycarbonate models are strong and durable and able to withstand harsh weather conditions (sometimes better than traditional glasshouses).
- Easy to Install: Our polycarbonate range are lighter than glass, making them an easy DIY project to install and handle.
- Insulation: Polycarbonate has excellent insulation properties, helping to maintain a stable internal temperature, which is crucial for growing plants year-round.
- UV Protection: Our polycarbonate panels are treated to block harmful UV rays, protecting delicate plants from sun damage.
- Versatile: Our range allows for personal aesthetic preferences e.g. with sloped or curved rooflines.
- Easy Maintenance: Polycarbonate panels are easy to clean and maintain, requiring minimal effort compared to glass.
