We produce pesticide-free Microgreens in the heart of Garner, NC for restaurants, CSAs, farmers markets, and produce delivery services. WHAT ARE MICROGREENS?
Tiny Veggies with Massive Nutrition and Flavor
Microgreens are tiny vegetables and herbs that are harvested at their maximum nutrient density, at the formation of the first "true leaves" of the plant. In 2012, a study published at the Unive
rsity of Maryland concluded that microgreens contain between 4 and 40 times the nutrient density of their full grown relatives. Thus, a tablespoon of raw microgreens is a full serving of vegetables. In addition to their superfood properties, microgreens pack tremendous flavor into a small bite. The team at Sweet Peas Urban Gardens believes that urban farming is fundamental to the creation of healthy, sustainable food production for our growing metropolitan society. As more folks flock to revitalized inner cities and neighborhoods, the demand for locally produced fresh food is expanding, catalyzing a re-evaluation of the potential of these traditionally non-agricultural landscapes. Moving from rural fields of row crops to dense neighborhood farms and gardens constitutes an urgent and exciting transition.
