We had the opportunity to work closely with

Their chefs had asked for a variety if Cilantro we hadn't seen. They sent us a picture and we got to researching.

We found a few varieties, and agreed that Confetti Cilantro was what we were searching for. It has whiskier looking leaf structure, but tastes very similar to Cilantro.

We love these little challenges to try to grow som**hing new. Thank you K**a team!!

Ever heard of Vitamin U?

Its a real thig, although Vitamin U is a nickname. Its real name is S-m**hylm**hionine which feels unfortunate because it sounds like m**h 😅

There were studies done on patients with ulcers, and they found the properties of cabbage really helped those patients out!

We grow a ton of cabbage, and while I didnt have an ulcer I was having very similar symptoms to them (Ive had ulcers caused by H.Pylori it's awful).

To help with that problem I started consuming a lot of our Rainbow Mix.

After a few days of being caffeine free and eating cabbage, I was back to my normal self.

I kind of feel weird talking about this 🫣

Ive had multiple people talk to me completely unprompted about breast milk. Great conversation, just with a guy who has had no exposure to babies, breast milk or anything of that nature, the cultural norms I just didn't know.

Every one of them gave incredible feedback of their milk production after eating microgreens. Great marketing for us, I just didnt know how to use that information (and honestly just as a man felt it isn't my place).

Having researched it, many women are lacking Vitamin D, E, Selenium, and Manganese. Som**hing microgreens are super packed with but we dont talk about it enough.

Having our own daughter now, we really feel the impacts of our nutritious lifestyle. We have a really strong baby, a really healthy breast milk food supply.

Ive had no life taking care of plants for 5 years. You can see a huge difference when we have great fertilizer and light on leafy greens. You give them great food, you get healthy strong plants.

The same thing applies to humans, good food in, 💪💪 out.

I've been a little absent.

This week, Cait and I are expecting our first child to be born. As upcoming first time parents, we are learning in real time what this whole experience is like.

I've had to step back in a few areas as a result, one of those being social media so I can take on more responsibilities from the farm from Cait.

Thank you everyone for your support and patience while we undergo this miracle!

We started in a basement in 2020. We moved into a commercial office space in 2022.

At the end of 2024 we moved into our warehouse. This was a huge leap for us.

In a year we had to trimming the business. We built it from scratch, the hardware, the software.

We invested in new equipment to just give us time back in our life. We used to spend 30 hours a week just putting dirt in trays by hand, it was crazy.

Financially, it was terrifying. We moved into a space before we were really ready for it.

Today, we keep pushing forward. Our days can start at 5am to 8pm, but we are constantly learning.

We've built so much behind the scenes, and it still feels like the startup where we are just getting started.

There is nothing more rewarding than building.

Spira Farms was born out a cancer diagnosis.

We aimed to build som**hing to help our family in dark times.

It turned into som**hing much larger after all of these years but at its core what we strove to do still remains.

A place to bring people together, a project that brings nutrition, and a product that is always getting more sustainable.

Microgreens are a small thing, but this project has helped us grow passed dark days.
