Microgreens are nutrition dense baby vegetables, herbs or fruit plants generally 35 days old or less.
They are between 5 to 60% more nutritious (depending on varieties) compared to the fully grown adult vegetable you would usually harvest and eat from your garden.
What is "Micro-farming" ?
"Micro-farming" means a small scale vertical farm.
How long does it take to grow ?
Depending on varieties it can take between 10 and 35 days to grow Microgreens.
For that reason it requires significantly low energy or watering to grow those powerful crops.
You can sprinkle microgreens to any dish. No cooking needed. You can eat them raw just like that. (unlike sprouts which you have to cook).
*Microgreens needs to be rinsed before consumed.*
*Always make sure they are dry before you store the produce back in the fridge.
Try adding them to:
Soup (sprinkle on top before serving)
Salad (Eat a mix of microgreens as a salad itself or add microgreens to your usual vegetable salad)
Pasta
Sandwich
Smoothies
Juicing
Tacos
Eggs
Meat
Noodles
Berries (Sprinkle lemon basil on top of Strawberries, blueberries, Blackberries)
Pie
and so much more...
What is used to grow them ?
Seeds : Certified ORGANIC seeds from a reputable source in Saskatchewan.
Medium : organic only. I use Coco coir (coconut bark) which is said to be much more safe than soil.
Water : FILTERED WATER only.
Grow light : Energy saving LED Grow lights
Containers : Plant based containers completely environmental friendly.
You cannot leave the container near a source of heat like in the microwave, in the sun, in the car or on the kitchen counter right beside your oven or it will melt. The good side is that you can put it in the trash without feeling guilty because it will be disintegrated within few months which is awesome for the environment.
