Microgreens

I'm so happy! We harvested our first microgreens of the season, and they are gorgeous. We sold every last bag of them at the farmer's market today. These are not "microwave greens" as one customer surmised. :) They're called "micro" because they are tiny. Our microgreens are a mixture of baby plants such as kale, cabbage, kohlrabi, radishes, beets, onions, etc. They only take 2-3 weeks to grow in the greenhouse, but they can be a little finicky sometimes. Maybe I'll do a "how to grow microgreens" blog post one of these days.

Want to try some of our delicious, nutrient-dense microgreens? Stop by our booth at the Franklin Farmer's Market on Saturdays from 9 a.m. until noon.
