CountrySide Products ( Micro Greens )

Please note that due to our commitment to providing the freshest produce, there is a cultivation period of 7-9 days for our microgreens to be ready for you.

Microgreens are essentially 'baby versions' of your favorite leafy greens! Microgreens are usually harvested 7-21 days after germination, when the plant's first leaves (cotyledon leaves) emerge.

Just like a seed contains a very high density of energy and minerals, microgreens contain a high concentration nutrients and flavor!
An American chemical study looked at nutrient levels of 25 different microgreens and compared them to full-sized leafy vegetables and herbs. Nutrient levels in different microgreens varied, but they always had higher levels per gram of vitamin C, vitamin E, vitamin A than mature crops.
Xiao, Z.Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, Aug. 22, 2012.

Another study at the University of Maryland in College Park showed that microgreens were four to 40-fold more concentrated with nutrients than their mature counterparts.
For example, red cabbage microgreens had 40 times more vitamin E and six times more vitamin C than mature red cabbage. Cilantro microgreens had three times more beta-carotene than mature cilantro.
