What are microgreens?
Little plants, big benefits
Microgreens are young vegetable plants, harvested 10-24 days after germination.
Despite measuring just 3-6 inches in length, microgreens pack a hefty nutritional punch. They have between 4 and 40 times more nutrition than their full-grown counterparts.
That’s right — UP TO 40 TIMES the nutritional content of a fully-grown vegetable!
Early research on microgreens shows they may have many functional benefits:
- managing Type 2 diabetes
- improved thinking and reasoning
- lower risk of heart disease
- cancer prevention
- vision health
- reduced risk of anemia
Versatile, Easy & Tasty
Microgreens are great for salads, smoothies, on sandwiches, soups, pasta and pizza. You can also eat them as a snack; they’re that flavorful!
- Need to eat on the run? Whip up a smoothie with fresh microgreens!
- Can’t get your kids to eat their veggies? Serve up a smoothie with fresh fruit, yogurt and microgreens! (They won’t even taste them.)
- Want to up your grill game? Garnish your steaks and chicken with fresh microgreens.
- Concerned that you aren’t getting enough nutrition in your diet? Add microgreens to every meal.
There really isn’t any dish that can’t be improved with microgreens!

We Are Smitten
We were so giddy about having home grown microgreens delivered to our home! We had just embarked on this microgreen journey within the last 6 months because of all the health benefits and we have enjoyed it.
However, after receiving our first delivery we are smitten. The taste, freshness and packaging were perfection. Their subscribe program is easy to maneuver as well.
We love salads made up of the various blends with just a splash of an aged balsamic vinegar or simply topping whatever protein we are eating with a splash of the greens.
