Description

Please join us in celebrating Mike Ecker and all he has done to ensure a prosperous fruit growing industry in Niagara.

Michael Ecker’s leadership within the Vineland Growers Co-operative has strengthened the vital role of family farms in the Niagara Region. He has also helped ensure the co-operative continues to excel through partnerships with the Vineland Research and Innovation Centre.

Vineland Growers was established in 1913, and since then has been owned and operated by Canadian farmers. For over 100 years, they have distributed peaches, nectarines, cherries, plums, grapes and pears, all grown on family farms. Vineland Growers has always been committed to the family farm and sustaining the industry for generations to come.
