Tiny plants. Remarkable nutrition.
Microgreens are young edible plants harvested at their peak — packed with flavor, texture, and goodness.
What are microgreens?
Microgreens are young vegetable greens harvested just after the first leaves develop — typically 7 to 14 days after planting. Unlike sprouts, they are grown in soil or growing medium and harvested above the root.
They offer intense flavor, beautiful color, and a simple way to add more fresh plants to everyday meals.
Microgreens vs sprouts
Sprouts
Germinated seeds eaten whole, including the root. Grown in water, typically without soil.
