Microgreens are young plants that are harvested just after their first true leaves appear. They are smaller than baby greens and larger than sprouts and are packed with flavor and nutrients. They are usually harvested at about 2 weeks of age.

We grow a variety of microgreens, including mustard greens, arugula, radish for our spicy mix. Also, red cabbage, kale, and bok choy in our sweet mix. Then, for our individual varieties we grow broccoli, wasabi mustard, sunflower, and peas.

We grow our microgreens on vertical racks under LED lighting. They are watered with a circulating system to preserve water and nutrients. We mainly use coco coir as our growing medium, but for a few varieties we use jute fiber mats to grow on.

Our microgreens can last up to 14 days when refrigerated and cared for properly.

Microgreens are up to 40 times more nutrient dense than their mature counterparts. They are packed with all the essential vitamins and minerals that you need. Also, broccoli is the most nutritious microgreen there is.

Microgreens are incredibly easy to incorporate into your meals. You can add microgreens to any meal, just take a couple pinches and top it on your meal. Also, an easy way to start is to use microgreens in place of lettuce. Microgreens are especially great on sandwiches, burger, wraps, tacos, and more. Microgreens are also great on eggs, salads, soups.

Our microgreens are delivered directly to your door if you live in the Chicagoland area and North West Indiana. They are delivered in a reusable, insulated canvas bag with a reusable ice pack. Some customers, to help preserve their order more, will leave a cooler out by their front door, and we will place their order inside.

On your next delivery day please put the bag and ice pack out by your front door by 9am, and we will the replace it with your current order for that day. If we have not received a bag and ice pack for two consecutive deliveries we will have to process a $5 fee per week we have not received a bag or ice pack. Once we get the additional bags and ice packs we will be happy to refund that fee.

Our microgreens are shipped inside of an insulated liner with a large ice pack to ensure they stay at the proper temperature throughout shipping. We ship them through UPS and Fedex, and they will get to our customers house in 1-2 business days, based off of their distance from our farm in Bolingbrook, IL.

If you receive your microgreens and they are not in a good condition please send us a picture on the same day that you received them. That way we can go ahead and process a refund for you. If a picture is not sent the same day we will not be able to process a refund as too many hours would have passed and many factors can cause they microgreens to go bad after they would have been received in good condition.
