Kimberly Site Construction Update: October 2025

October 6, 2025

Breanne Stowell, Sr. Station Manager – Kimberly Location

Construction at our Kimberly site continues to advance steadily, with several exciting developments over the past few weeks.

  • ETFE (Ethylene Tetrafluoroethelyne) installation is progressing, marking a major step toward final enclosure. Check out the video above to see the progress!
  • Steel erection is underway, bringing vertical structure and form to these buildings.
  • Foundation walls have been successfully poured, preparing the site for the next phase of construction.

We’re proud of the continued momentum and grateful to all KWS teams and our construction partner, Ceres Greenhouse Solutions, for their dedication and craftsmanship.
