Keeping it Fresh

Fresh tomatoes right off the vine

Neighbouring Medicine Hat is the Greenhouse Capital of the Prairies, the town of Redcliff. A hub of greenhouses live within blocks of each other and the doors are open to community members, visitors, and restaurant owners to enjoy fresh vegetables grown right in Southeast Alberta. While driving the Trans-Canada Highway, here’s where you can find tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers…and the list goes on. All are family owned. Some are self-serve with the honour rule. Be sure to have cash on hand, as some don’t take payment by card .

Kristine Dalzell, owner of Zucchini Blossom Market & Café, is one of many food and drink owners who source vegetables from the greenhouse hub for menu items — soups, salads, sandwiches, and as a side to compliment the main course.
