GreenField Ethanol who is Canada's leading ethanol producer, just yesterday accepted its 100,000th delivery of corn to its Chatham Ontario plant. GreenField Ethanol gets its corn from local Canadian producers.

For the 100,000 delivery, local truck driver Gary Johnston of Wallaceburg, Ontario arrived early yesterday morning to deliver corn from the farm of Jim and Lorne Smith which is in Kent Bridge Ontario.

GreenField Ethanol President and CEO Bob Gallant said of the event, "Since our Chatham plant opened in 1997, GreenField Ethanol's success has been linked with the Chatham-Kent community. This 100,000th delivery of corn would not have been possible without our Chatham employees and the local farms and businesses that we work with on a daily basis, year in, year out. This milestone would not be possible without the local farmers and everyone in the Chatham-Kent community."
