<h2>Village Farms Expands Cannabis Cultivation Capabilities in British Columbia</h2>
<p>In a strategic move towards bolstering its position within the cannabis industry, Village Farms International, Inc. has announced plans to expand its cannabis cultivation operations. This expansion involves converting the remaining 550 square feet of their Delta 2 greenhouse in Delta, British Columbia. Scheduled to begin in November 2025, this conversion is part of a broader initiative to enhance their cannabis production capabilities to meet rising consumer demand.</p>
<p>The project is expected to require approximately CAD $10 million in capital expenditures. Once completed, it will enable Village Farms to produce an estimated 40 metric tons of cannabis annually. The first planting in the newly converted grow rooms is anticipated for the spring of 2026, as the company continues to align its capabilities with its robust market strategies.</p>
