Sun-Grown in Colorado since 2017, our microgreens are cultivated on-site, not sourced. We grow on an organic medium with non-GMO & organic seeds, and use fresh water, not synthetic fertilizers. We harvest at the peak nutritional state and cold-dehydrate (a natural low & slow process) in our commercial kitchen. We freshly mill just upon making each small batch of this green gold for our microgreen goods 💚💛

The short shelf life of microgreens can make storage and distribution challenging. The higher cost compared to fully grown greens might make them less accessible to some people. Limited availability in certain areas could prevent more widespread use and consumption. Our microgreens products are shelf-stable, made available at a better price over leading competitors, & can be shipped to every home across the U.S.
