MICROGREENS

WHAT ARE MICROGREENS?

​Microgreens are edible vegetable and herb seedlings that are usually harvested 1-2 weeks after they are planted. This is when their first true leaves appear. They range in size from 1-3 inches long but have surprisingly intense flavours considering their small size.

​The health benefits of microgreens have been the subject of many research reports. Some stating that they have up to 40X more nutrients than the mature plant.

​Enjoy in salads, on sandwiches, as a topping for your soup or whipped up into a pesto. The possibilities are endless.

​We are taking preorders of many varieties that are grown to order in 5"X5" blocks. We use only non GMO certified organic seeds. Your order is ready in 7-14 days. These are live plants ready for you to harvest as needed. You can't get any fresher than that. Available for local pick up and delivery only, shipping not available.

HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR
MICROGREENS


You may harvest your live microgreens as needed for up to 3 days. After this time we recommend you then cut what's left and store them in the fridge. The cut Microgreens should last up to 10 days if stored properly, failing to do so can result in wilted, slimy greens and who wants that?
​
LIVE MICROGREENS - Fresh for about 3 Days

Place your growing tray on a solid shallow dish near a bright window. Add 1/4 c of water per tray to the dish your greens are sitting in, this is called bottom watering and ensures the leaves on the greens stay dry. do this once or twice a day. Harvest as needed.
After 3 days cut remaining microgreens and store in fridge, this ensures the ultimate flavour and texture is preserved.
​
CUT MICROGREENS - Fresh for up to 10 Days
Rinse and thoroughly dry your cut microgreens. I prefer to cut and store them dry, rinsing them before use. Excess moisture will cause them to go slimy (Yuck). Store your microgreens in a non-porous container lined with a paper towel with a paper towel on top to absorb the excess moisture. Place a lid on top and you're good to go. Enjoy!!!


Your order is ready in 7-14 days depending on variety. Some varieties may be available sooner as I am always planting a little extra with each order. You will be contacted with an estimated delivery date when we receive your order. Local pick up and delivery only at this time.

Heating them at  70 degree C for 10 minutes increases the bioavailability of sulforaphane by about 3.5x. However, if you cook them too hot or for too long you’ll destroy the compound, so perhaps eating them raw is best just in case.
