What are microgreens ? 🌱🍀
It is quite normal that you have never heard of microgreens before. In Belgium there is only a handful of growers and you don't see microgreens in the supermarkets ... yet (aside some exceptions).
Some general information :
* Young vegetable greens, between 2,5 and 7cm high
* Don't confuse them with sprouts. Sprouts don't have leaves and are harvested much earlier.
* Microgreens are packed with nutrients. This makes them a good addition to any diet.
* Their nutrient content is concentrated, which means that they often contain higher vitamin, mineral and antioxidant levels than the same quantity of mature greens

In later posts we will inform you more in detail about the nutritional value of all different types that we grow.

Despite their small size, microgreens pack a nutritional punch. This article reviews their health benefits and how to grow your own.
