Rock Garden Herbs adds acreage
Miami-based Rock Garden Herbs, which serves several locations of Coosemans Worldwide Inc., has expanded its growing area near Homestead, Fla., by 20 acres, said Jonathan Roussel, sales director.
The company focuses on organic items and offers about a dozen varieties of herbs for retail and also grows a number of specialty herbs and other products, such as lovage and tumeric, primarily for foodservice accounts.
Last year, the company moved into a fully renovated, 40,000-square-foot facility.
Three buildings were gutted and combined into one site that included a newly installed refrigeration system, coolers, processing lines and offices, he said.
