About Les Serres de la Vallière
Les Serres de la Vallière is a company established by a young entrepreneur, Magalie Rajotte. Her parents came from a farming background and built a field crop business that stood out in the industry and inspired their daughter's entrepreneurial spirit. When Magalie decided to take a course in Agricultural Business Management and Technology at the Institut de technologie agroalimentaire in Saint-Hyacinthe, Québec, she intended to take over the family farm and leave a mark as distinctive as her parents'. In order to support the growth of the business, she decided to diversify into greenhouse cultivation, based on a previous experience. She sought the advice of experts to make her project a reality, including the team at Sollum Technologies, which will provide the greenhouse LED grow lights for her smart lighting solution. Her winter strawberry production will begin in the fall of 2022.
