Collection: Microgreens
In a world full of corporations and policies that prioritize dollar signs over health and convinced that there is a pill to solve every problem, we believe in utilizing the gifts of nature to put health and wellness first and foremost. At our farm we specialize in a unique type of vegetable that paves the way for the next generation of agriculture and will play a major role in the future of optimal nutrition; Microgreens.
Simply put, microgreens or “micros” are the baby versions of all your favorite veggies as well as some not as commonly consumed. They are scientifically proven to be loaded with bioavailable phytonutrients, vitamins, and minerals. Up to 40X the amount found in fully mature vegetables. This along with the many benefits listed below make them a no brainer for anyone striving for a healthier, more cost effective and more sustainable lifestyle.
How microgreens are superior to traditional veggies:
Because of their extremely high levels of bioavailable, "live" phytonutrients and antioxidants, microgreens have been scientifically proven to prevent and combat chronic diseases including cancer, diabetes, dementia, alzheimers, parkinsons, heart disease and more!
Our microgreens are grown without chemical intervention. This means no pesticides, herbicides or preservative coatings so you can be sure you're feeding yourself and your family what you want them to eat without the anxiety of feeding them the nastiness you don't.
Micros require no fossil fuels, no chemicals, no synthetic fertilizer and just a fraction of the water needed to grow their fully mature counterparts, making them more sustainable and much more environmentally friendly when compared to conventionally grown produce.
As previously mentioned, microgreens are extremely nutrient dense and contain exponential amounts of these nutrients per ounce when compared to fully mature versions of the same vegetables. In other words, you can eat less “veggies” and still get more of the same (often better) nutrients. For example, one handful of broccoli microgreens can contain the same amount of sulphoraphane (a powerful antioxidant correlated with cancer and neurodegenerative disease prevention) as roughly 5 pounds of raw broccoli florets. Wowza.
Busy schedule? Save time and skip the mess as microgreens are fast and easy to use, requiring no peeling, slicing, dicing or seed removal. Just pop open the package and toss them in or on soups, meats, sandwiches, pizzas, salads, tacos etc. The possibilities are endless.
Kids love them! Maybe it’s because micros are so cute and fun, just like your kiddos or maybe it’s because they only need a pinch of micros to get the same amount or more of the nutrients they would get from a giant pile of broccoli florets. Either way, tried and true, they would much rather eat micros than "normal" vegetables.
Highly sought after by professional chefs and food connoisseurs as well as health minded individuals, microgreens add depth of flavor, variety and undeniable beauty to any and every cuisine.
If they're so great, why don't I see them everywhere?
The fact of the matter is that microgreens are not easy to store or ship without proper handling or precautions and getting them from farm to grocery store to your refrigerator in good condition is simply not possible (or profitable) for food distribution companies.
That's where we come in. Our microgreens are grown to order and we deliver them directly to your doorstep. You read that right. The moment you order we put you on the board for the next planting cycle which we do every single week of the year. The time from seeding to harvesting is roughly 12 days, after which your micros, grown specifically with you and your family in mind, will be immediately packaged, refrigerated and delivered to you directly from the farm the very next day.
We know, 12+ days on a food order seems like a long time, but keep in mind you will not find fresher, cleaner, more quality produce anywhere on earth. In order to circumvent any delay, we offer weekly or biweekly membership programs that will give you access to our microgreens, grown, harvested and delivered directly to you every single (or every other) week without you even having to think about it. What’s more, when you sign up for a membership you will automatically receive a 10% discount on every package of micros you receive for as long as you hold the membership, which you can cancel at any time.
With all of the craziness in the world today and the corruption of modern day food systems, it is our family’s pleasure and passion to offer you and your loved ones a healthier, more cost effective, and easier alternative to everyday nutrition. Although there will always be a seat at the table for fully mature traditional vegetables, we’re positive you and your loved ones will appreciate the ease of mind knowing that without a doubt, our micros are providing you with year-round nutrition that’s essential to growing and thriving in a busy and wild world.
Here’s to a healthier future and easy decisions.
Order or sign up for a membership now and we'll be sure to let you know when to expect your first delivery.
