🚨 Heads up, Valued Customers! 🥬

We’ll be taking a short break from growing as our hydroponic farm goes through a deep clean and system refresh. That means we won’t have lettuce available for the next few weeks.

This routine maintenance helps us keep everything fresh, clean, and running at its best 💧🌱

We’ll keep you posted and can’t wait to be back soon with crisp, clean greens!

Quyanaa for growing with us and your understanding & support! 💚
