Imagine adding a vibrant splash of color and a burst of fresh, subtle flavor to your next meal. These aren't just tiny greens; they're miniature powerhouses of taste and nutrition, the young leaves of red cabbage, carefully grown and harvested at their peak for you.
Each delicate stem carries leaves that explode with shades of purple, from deep royal hues to soft lavenders, often kissed with a touch of fresh green. Their texture is wonderfully tender, melting in your mouth with a gentle succulence. Forget the sometimes assertive flavor of mature cabbage; these microgreens offer a delicate sweetness, followed by a clean, mild earthiness and just a hint of that characteristic brassica freshness.
Think of them as tiny jewels for your plate. They instantly elevate salads with their stunning color and delicate crunch. Tuck them into sandwiches and wraps for a surprising burst of flavor and texture. Use them as a vibrant and sophisticated garnish for soups, tacos, or even avocado toast, adding both visual appeal and a boost of nutrients.
These little wonders are packed with goodness, offering a concentrated dose of vitamins and antioxidants. 1 Their rich purple color comes from anthocyanins, beneficial compounds that make them as good for you as they are beautiful.

Frequent Asked Questions
What are Microgreens?
Early research has indicated that microgreens contain up to 40% more phytochemicals (beneficial nutrients and components) than their full-grown counterparts. Though these little greens are small in stature, they contain extremely high levels of powerful vitamins, minerals, and health-supporting components.
How do you store Microgreens?
Microgreens should be consumed within the first 7 days, however, if the conditions are right they can last up to two weeks and beyond in the refrigerator. Microgreens need to be stored dry and at an ideal temperature of 2-5 degrees Celsius (35-40 degrees Fahrenheit).
Can I request a custom order?
Yes, Absolutely! If you are interested in a variety that we do not currently stock, then we will grow it for you.
If your inquiry is about bulk or wholesale orders, we will provide special pricing based on volume.
What happens if I'm not home at the time of delivery?
When you place your order, you can specify instructions to leave the parcel with a neighbor or some people will put out a cooler to store the microgreens until they get back home. Even if it’s last minute, you can give us a call and we will adjust the delivery to suit your needs.
