A family-owned greenhouse business taps into a federal grant to address labor challenges. Puckett Greenhouses in Patrick County started with an $86 investment in plants from a fishing trip in the 1970s. Today, the business has over 50 greenhouses and was recently awarded a $200,000 federal grant to improve working conditions for its agricultural employees. The Cardinal News reports the grant will be used to establish a collaborative working group, ensure housing maintenance for seasonal workers, and create a bonus program. The company faces challenges in finding local workers for seasonal jobs and has turned to hiring H-2A workers from Mexico.
