The national growth strategy for Revol Greens, the largest greenhouse lettuce producer in the US, continues to germinate with the inaugural planting at its recently completed Tehachapi, CA-based greenhouse.

In mid-September, the first harvest of a wide variety of organic baby leaf and head lettuce followed as part of the initial phase of Revol Greens’ 64-acre greenhouse.

“The brand’s new West Coast presence will service retailers and restaurants throughout the region,” said Tom Thompson, chief revenue officer at the company, which has locations in Minnesota, California, and soon Texas.

Amid a historic drought in California, where 80 percent of the state’s water is used for agriculture, Revol Greens will leverage a sustainable and controlled growing environment that requires just one pint of water per container of greens compared to 12 gallons per container in the field—the annual equivalent of over 300 million gallons of water saved. 

One of Revol Greens' most significant innovations is its proprietary Plant-Fed Organic nutrient source, which led to the creation of the first USDA certified organic lettuce line that does not use any animal byproducts in its fertilizer.

Founded in 2017, the company harvests and delivers local lettuce and greens within 24 hours of harvest, resulting in a fresh taste and peak nutritional value.

Offering one of the most robust selections of baby leaf greenhouse-grown lettuce products in North America, Revol Greens is now trailblazing into a new category in the greenhouse arena with its innovative line of value-added organic salad kits featuring premium whole leaf lettuces.

“Meeting consumer demand for more fresh and convenient meal options, Revol Greens’ premium organic salad kits include four custom-curated salad varieties boasting popular and on-trend flavors paired with a mix of high-quality ingredients and dressings,” Thompson said. “Each of Revol Greens’ organic greenhouse-grown salad kits contain two servings and range between 160 and 200 calories per serving.”

The new organic salad kits hit store shelves in October with a suggested retail price of $4.99.

“Starting with our unique whole (not chopped) baby leaf lettuce, we then sourced the best-of-the-best ingredients—from dairy land cheese to plant-based toppings from sweet to savory, which we complemented with our premium dressing recipes,” Thompson said. “Everything about these salads was thoughtfully selected for maximum taste, quality, and satisfaction. Customers are in awe of the quality and the taste.”

Focused on food safety, all of Revol Greens’ lettuce varieties follow the company’s proprietary Grown Clean and Green process in an animal- and pest-free environment that is also free of any pesticides, herbicides, or other chemicals.

“Whether at home or heading back into the office, busy consumers have recently driven a double-digit increase in demand for bold, fresh flavors and convenient, healthy solutions to keep things interesting while making meal preparation easier,” Thompson said.

All Revol Greens products are available year-round.

The company’s greenhouses are designed to recapture and recycle water where possible, leading to more than 500 million gallons of water saved annually.
