What are Microgreens?
Microgreens can certainly be described by their name; They are small, baby greens. These vegetables are both planted and harvested within an 8-14 day period, far before they are fully matured. Our organic seeds are sown, grown, then cut, after the plant's first set of true leaves emerge.
The Nutritional Benefits of the Broccoli Microgreens are studied to have more than 40x more nutrition than their grown counterparts. Meaning that 2 ounces of microgreens equals almost 3 pounds of fully matured broccoli in nutritional benefits. With its nutritional properties the health benefits include lowering blood cholesterol, increases in teeth and bone health, helping to regulate hormones, heart health, and more.

How do I care for my microgreens once I am home?
We suggest putting your microgreens in the vegetable crisper, on the bottom shelf, or in the bottom drawer of your refrigerator. These are tender greens, keeping them cool (avoid freezing), and away from condensation, is key. In Texas it is humid, so we like to keep a paper towel on top of our greens to avoid the closed container collecting condensation, and getting moisture on our greens.
How do I order microgreens?
We hope to have to capability for online orders soon, but for now just reach out via social media platforms, email, text, or meet us at the farmers market. We will announce our markets on our social medias each week. So, follow us for future details!
