A Red Zone Stands for the Green Future of 48North
Growing degree days (GDD), also called growing degree units (GDUs), are a heuristic tool in phenology. GDD are a measure of heat accumulation used by horticulturists, gardeners, and farmers to predict plant and animal development rates such as the date that a flower will bloom, an insect will emerge from dormancy, or a crop will reach maturity.*


The Good Farm is located in one of the few regions of Canada that is suitable for the cultivation of valuable agricultural crops - see graph. 48North's Farm is located in the province of Ontario, not far from the city of Brantford, in the area of the zone marked in red on the map.
