Nursery and Greenhouse Growers Insurance in Connecticut

As a nursery grower, you are the classic entrepreneur wearing many hats and managing many tasks trying to keep your business on the leading edge of your industry while keeping expenses manageable. You have a great deal invested in property infrastructure whether it be large gutter connect greenhouses, irrigation, generators, tractors, wagons, and managing a large staff. However, your biggest investment is the plants. In most cases, the plants take years to mature into a marketable product. The Lyman Agency, Inc. can provide nursery insurance coverage on certain greenhouse structures with loss of crops inside the greenhouse. We realize your propagation houses are the lifeblood of your business and the loss of a propagation house and more importantly, the newly growing crop could cripple your operation.

Along with growing the crop, you have to spend an equal amount of time cultivating your various markets of garden centers, landscapers, or the big box retailers. As if this wasn’t enough, you are creating a culture of success among your staff. The Lyman Agency, LLC has helped many nurseries and annual growers, as well as many of Connecticut’s largest farms and Agribusinesses.

Other Risk Factors For Commercial Nurseries

Workers Compensation:

Historically the biggest insurance expense associated with most nurseries is Workers Compensation Insurance. In many cases, the Workers Compensation represents approximately 75% of the annual insurance premium. It is critical for you to have a partner who has a detailed understanding, and expertise of the entire workers’ compensation system. The key to maintaining a level or decreasing premiums is loss prevention. We have successfully worked with some of the largest nurseries in implementing successful programs. When someone is injured it is critical that the claims are properly managed in order to protect your modification factor (MOD). We do this every day and as a result are able to reduce and lower the MOD factor.

Commercial Auto:

Most Nurseries in Connecticut have a large fleet of vehicles ranging from tractor trailers for moving inventory and delivering the finished product, to straight flatbed trucks, to dump trucks, pickup trucks, vans and cars for the sales staff and management. We understand Commercial Auto and show you ways to reduce your premiums on an ongoing basis.
