What Are Microgreens?

Microgreens are young vegetable greens harvested just after the first true leaves have developed. They are typically 1-3 inches tall and are known for their intense flavors, vibrant colors, and concentrated nutrient content. Unlike sprouts, which are harvested before leaves develop, microgreens are grown in sunlight, which enhances their nutritional value.

Microgreens are a powerhouse of nutrients. They can contain up to 40 times more vitamins and minerals than their mature counterparts.
