The building houses a potato handling and grading area, and a full size laboratory. The lab contains the equipment necessary for assessing the baking, boiling, chipping, and frying qualities of potato. A fully functional greenhouse is available for year-round operation. It is equipped with hydroponics, and an automated watering system. The office facility, constructed in 1994, combines office space, a conference room, and laboratory space.
Lab equipment includes steam distillation equipment, and a gas chromatograph.
The grounds are spacious and well maintained. They are suitable for hosting large tour groups, trade shows, and special events. In 1986 there was virtually no dry bean or pea production in the irrigated areas of Saskatchewan. A decade later, in 1996, there was 5,000 acres of dry bean and 2,500 acres of field pea. A major acreage of seed potatoes is now produced under irrigation in Saskatchewan.
