Where do you see Skeenagreen pod farm or how you going to measure success for your business?
I see Skeenagreen Pod Farm growing into a trusted local brand that provides fresh, eco-friendly greens to homes and cafés in Terrace. I’ll measure success by how many loyal customers we gain, how much we grow our sales, and the positive feedback we get from the community. For me, real success means people in Terrace choosing local, sustainable produce and knowing it came from Skeenagreen.
What makes your pod farming different from other pod farmers from Terrace, BC?
We don’t just grow pods we nurture them with care, using organic methods and minimizing waste. Plus, being local means, we know the climate and community, so our pods are tailored to thrive here and taste great for our neighbors.
How will you make sure people in Terrace know about your pod farm and products?
We plan to get involved with the community by attending local markets and events, partnering with local stores, and sharing our story on social media. Word of mouth will be huge, so we’ll also encourage customers to spread the word by providing a friendly, approachable experience.
What kind of posts will you share on Instagram or TikTok to promote your farm?
We’ll post a mix of behind-the-scenes clips showing how we grow the pods, fun facts about pod farming, recipes using our products, and customer testimonials. Short, engaging videos showing the daily life on the farm or quick tips for using pods will help keep things fresh and interesting.
Will you offer any special deals or discounts to first-time customers?
Yes! To welcome new customers, we’ll offer a small discount on their first bundle or a free sample with their first order. It’s our way of saying thanks for giving us a try and showing confidence in our pods.
How will you deliver the products to customers and keep them fresh?
We’ll use insulated packaging and quick delivery methods-either pick-up spots around town or local courier services – to make sure the pods stay fresh and crisp. If customers order online, we’ll carefully time shipments and use cooling packs when needed.
Do you plan to work with local businesses like cafés or restaurants?
Absolutely! Collaborating with local cafés and restaurants is a great way to support each other and introduce more people to our pods. We’re excited to build those partnerships, whether it’s supplying fresh pods for dishes or creating exclusive bundles for their customers.
How will you keep customers coming back after their first order?
We’ll focus on excellent customer service, consistent quality, and staying engaged with our community through newsletters or social media. Plus, we’ll introduce loyalty programs, seasonal specials, and maybe even some fun events or farm tours to make customers feel connected and excited to come back.
