We aim to grow plenty and show others that food production can be by combining ideas and modern with a little and good intention

When you just finished cleaning and sanitising a load of trays and the weather starts to change. Mad dash to get them all inside before the rain and wind ruined all of our hard work.. 🌬🌧

Pretty much love everything about growing Microgreens aside from tray day. Tray day I loathe and need to get a better system in place. If anyone has any suggestions they would be warmly welcomed 🌱💚

Well now the trays are cleaned it’s time to enjoy the fruits of my labour and have a quick bite to eat before hitting the hay.

Don’t worry this doesn’t pack the intense flavour of our Spicy Mix. It’s mild and sweet and makes a great accompaniment to sandwiches, wraps, salads or garnish. Personally we just love to snack on it by itself too. It went down a treat with everybody after yesterday’s delivery round. Want to try? Order yours today 🌱

So we decided to start adding in some more vibrant varieties to our range of MicroGreens.
& are two of the varieties we are now beginning to trial. Ignore the size of the makeshift grow containers here these are literally the very first ever two test grows in our farm. I like to be frugal and Amaranth can be more challenging to grow so I opted for very small containers as it will be less seed wasted. So far so good they have just come out of germination and are now enjoying some time under the grow lights.

Tomorrow I will be sowing full size trays of both and in just a matter of weeks these two new varieties will be available to the local community in and around 🌱

Our new business cards and labels are ready. We were due to be up and running in late Feb but sadly this situation had other plans and caused a slight delay with the final things before we could fire up production at our St. Andrews MicroFarm.

We are now ready to begin sending our amazing fresh MicroGreens out to the local community. As an essential farming business supplying fresh food we will of course be doing this in a way that respects social distancing and protects everyone to help our NHS.

We will begin taking new orders in just over a week. If you or anyone you know around the St Andrews area would like some freshly harvested Micros to snack on, add to salads, meals sandwiches or wraps for a super healthy and nutritious boost of flavour to your day then please feel free to drop us a message.

We will be somewhat limited on varieties for the time being as some of our seed suppliers are unable to meet demand for now. We also are unable to scale up our MicroFarm to a larger capacity at this time due to horticultural lighting and other needed equipment being harder to source at present. That said, we have managed to buy a large quantity of some seed. We have also restocked on our favourite plant based, compostable and environmentally friendly plastic packaging from Vegware. So for now we will endeavour to fulfil as many orders as we possibly can.

Pricing and availability will be published here soon so watch this space and thank you all for your support and patience 🌱
