HIGHLAND MUSCLUN WITH TOMATO + DRESSING 100GR

Highland Vegetables started in 2008 in the highlands in Western Java. The elevation of 1,100m provides an ideal temperature range of 15-30°C perfect for the growth of their salad leaves and vine products. Although the climate and water availability were conducive to the production, they quickly learned that mother nature alone is unreliable in delivering consistent yield and product quality that are key to the sustainability of their business.
In 2009, they started to move vegetable production into greenhouses which allow a more controlled environment and protection from the weather and pests, thus enabling higher yields and superior product quality compared to products planted in the open field.
The main composition of their production are salad leaves, tomatoes, lettuces and baby leaves, but they continue to look for produce to add to their list to offer their customers a one-stop shopping option for their fresh vegetables.
Spring is also a brand of Highland Vegetables focusing mainly on Asian green leaves.
Biosecurity
They pay close attention to bio security in their farm from the nursery stage, production, and all the way to harvesting. Sanitation is placed at the entry point of every greenhouse to minimize bacteria and other diseases being carried into the green house by people working in it.
Cold Chain
They maintain the temperature throughout the handling process to reduce bacterial infection, ensure fresher products, and ultimately to ensure each product retains its nutrients. Products are harvested in the cool of the day, to give a longer shelf life. It is then stored in our on-farm cold room.
Sustainability
Growing vegetables in greenhouses uses much less land area than growing on an open field due to its much higher yield. Furthermore, all of their products are grown using the hydroponic system which means that less water is used to produce them.
