Trigg finds niche in lettuce

Retired military member brings home different growing method

By JENNIFER MOONSONG
Glasgow Daily Times

The lettuce is tasty too.

“Everybody who eats the lettuce says it is the best they’ve ever had,” he said.

Aside from local sales the family business is also selling its unique, leaf lettuce to Grasshopper Distribution LLC in Louisville, which in turn, distributes the lettuce to high-end eateries statewide.

In recent weeks, the Triggs have tried their luck at selling the excess lettuce and other produce from a stand near their greenhouse. The stand is located at the corner of Lewis Street and Bunch Avenue.

Trigg has found another way to give back to the community.

“We like to give our excess to the Glasgow Housing Authority,” said Trigg. “They distribute it to people in need, however they see fit.”
