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.
