The microgreens what and why?
Microgreens are simply young vegetables, harvested just before or as their first true leaves are developing.
They are in general more nutritiously dense than their fully grown counterparts. Our mixed packs include Calabrese Broccoli, which is an exceptionally potent source of Sulforaphane. This is a compound being researched for its anti cancer and heart health benefits. Our mixed packs also include Sunflower Shoots, which are an excellent source of plant protein, Pea Shoots, which contain approximately the same levels of vitamin C per serving as blueberries and Rambo Radish, which again is a vitamin and mineral powerhouse in comparison to its mature self.
We use organic seeds planted in compost and water. That's it, there's no additional fertiliser or pesticides, so you really can be assured that what you are eating is pure and untainted. We love what we do and it's our pleasure to share this with you.
We harvest every week through the year and deliver the same day to maximise nutrition and shelf life. As we only supply the local market, there is no wasteful shipping or transportation.
Microgreens are eaten raw and are a quick and easy way to improve your nutrition. While flavourful they even appeal to the more fussy eater not keen on their greens. All of our punnets are priced at £3.50 each. Give them a go, we make it easy by offering free weekly delivery to residents of Herne Bay and Whitstable with orders of £10 or more. Please message me to order.
We nurture microgreens to ensure maximum freshness, nutrition and taste.
