What are Microgreens?
Microgreens are tiny, nutrient-rich plants harvested at an early stage of growth, just after their first leaves appear. Despite their small size, they are packed with intense flavours, vibrant colours, and a high concentration of macronutrients, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Some microgreens can contain up to a whopping 260x the nutrient density of the same amount of their mature vegetable version! These miniature greens are often used to enhance the taste, texture, nutrition, and visual appeal of soups, salads, sandwiches, gourmet dishes and more. Microgreens are a popular choice for health-conscious individuals looking to add fresh, flavourful nutrition to their meals. Want to learn more about our microgreens, how to order, and more?
