Microgreens are young, edible plants harvested at the seedling stage, typically within 7-14 days after germination. They are small in size but rich in flavor, color, and nutrients. Unlike sprouts, which are germinated seeds grown in water, microgreens are grown in soil or a hydroponic medium and are harvested when the first set of true leaves appear. This early harvest means they often contain more vitamins and minerals than mature plants.
At Spores n Sprouts, we cultivate a diverse range of microgreens, including sunflower, fenugreek, red mustard, green mizuna, kohlrabi, rocket, pea shoots, and Rambo radish. Each variety offers unique tastes and health benefits, providing higher concentrations of vitamins A, C, K, and E, essential minerals like potassium, iron, and magnesium, and potent antioxidants. For example, rocket microgreens are particularly high in potassium, supporting heart health, while red mustard microgreens are noted for their high antioxidant content, which helps protect cells from damage and reduce inflammation.
Our microgreens are grown using advanced hydroponic systems that provide the perfect balance of nutrients, water, and light, allowing them to thrive without the use of pesticides. This method ensures that our microgreens are available year-round, providing you with fresh, local produce whenever you need it. The use of vermiculture to recycle 100% of our organic waste into nutrient-rich compost further enhances the quality of our produce, ensuring that nothing goes to waste and that our microgreens are grown in the healthiest environment possible.
Microgreens are not only a nutritional powerhouse but also incredibly versatile in the kitchen. They add a burst of flavour and a pop of colour to salads, sandwiches, and smoothies, and can be used as vibrant garnishes for soups, omelettes, and main dishes. Their intense flavours and nutritional benefits make them a favourite among chefs and home cooks alike.
