In a vastly changing world, it's our purpose to highlight mutually beneficial relationships between food production, sustainability and human health while honoring the history of our agricultural roots.

We utilize 100% organic, non- GMO seed and high quality, fertile soil.
What are Microgreens?
Essentially Microgreens are crops grown 7-21 days harvested after the first leaves have grown. Microgreens are highly dense packages of nutrients containing 40x more nutrition than fully grown crops! They are one of nature's greatest superfoods!
The Bio-Available nutrients in Microgreens are well-known worldwide for their ability to support wellness. Think of Microgreens as a Multi-Vitamin in its natural form so your body can recognize the nutrients and put to use the Vitamins and Minerals available. As our soil becomes more and more depleted of nutrients, causing our food to become less nutritious, discovering modern farming techniques is vital to our health especially in a global shift in the climate.
