Aris Horticulture’s Keepsake Plants production facility in Leamington, Ontario, Canada, sustained damage during a tornado the weekend of June 5-6. No one was injured, but several of the greenhouses were damaged; the office building received minimal damage.
No disruption to daily shipments is anticipated due to the storm and Aris is operating as normal. Growers relying on product distribution will receive material on schedule. The company is assessing the damage to the property and developing a long-term facility recovery plan.
