Part of our expansion with our new grow towers is to take cuttings of the already grown plants and keep propagating it so that we can keep a steady supply of mint and (future) basil tips 🌿

Sophie has been helping out Chris on the weekends with the cuttings 🌱

We know they were successful as all the cuttings have grown roots and are now in our system, growing the next batch of mint 🤩

Great job Sophie 👏

For our grow towers, our chosen medium are these Jiffy pellets. 🥥

They are made from a mix of peat and coco coir which expand when water is added. 💧

They are 100% biodegradable so once the plant has reached its end of cycle, it can break back down into the soil in our food forest. 🌳

Frosty start the other morning with Rich from .timber coming out to chip some of our felled poplar trees. It was epic to see him in action ! 🪵

Chris has been felling some of the invasive poplar trees around our HQ site so that come springtime we can start planting a few thousand natives which are being cared for in our own Gibbston Microgreens Nursery 🪴

Grow tower update !! 🌿

All good things take time and that includes growing herbs 🌱

Our biggest learning curve so far has been ensuring our pH levels and EC levels are correct. This ensure that the nutrients are being taken up correctly by the plant in the hydroponic system. 💧

As you can see here, the ginger mint has had some discolouration through the nutrients not being drawn up quite right, so by testing we are able to change the pH levels and within days we could see the difference 💛💚

We’re planting more and have towers 3 and 4 ready to go ! Stayed tuned next month for our most exciting update yet 🤩

Jo used to be a bartender and wanted to try out making some cocktails with our Microgreens. First up is a Shiso Daiquiri 🍸

Rich shiso syrup, white rum and fresh lime juice is all shaken up and served with a delicate shiso leaf which gives a hint of mint with that pop of purple colour 💜

It was delicious and we can’t wait to see what other creations Jo comes up with 🍹

One of our microgreen sunflowers has popped OFF 🌻 in the food forest with all this amazing weather ☀️

Fun fact - the name of the seed we buy for our micros is called Sunflower Sophie ☺️

Our Story

We produce a variety of nutrient dense microgreens for both restaurants and residential consumers in the Queenstown area. We sell both living & cut microgreens and incentivise the return of the empty containers & growing trays so that we can re-use them for the next crop. Our goal is to operate with minimal waste on our external environment. We compost all of the used growing medium and by recycling the trays, we remove the element of package waste and create a financial and sustainable motive for our customers to return them. We have converted a shipping container into a year round production space. In this, we grow vertically on tiered flood & drain beds & in the near future aim to have a well established aquaponic system.
