Hey Facebook Family! Just wanted to let you know that our website will be down for a day or so. If you try to access it via Chrome or Safari you will see a big red page. Don't worry! We are working on correcting the issue with Google. If you use Edge there should be no problem. One of those cray cray internet issues that I am not qualified to explain.

Here we goooo...I've had so many thoughts since starting this journey and I have Journaled many of them. This is a long post and I apologize, but it's important for me to share.
You might remember the 70's era posters inscribed with "Everything I like is either Immoral, Illegal or Fattening" or some iteration of this. As a college student this was almost comically true to life. As we age we see that this is a reflection of a lifestyle that doesn't serve us..our health is imperative. Crooked Carrot Farms is determined to support you along your health journey, no matter your age or level of physical and mental health. This commitment has driven us from our inception-the concept of growing sustainable foods that are nothing short of miraculous in their nutritional profiles and natural bioavailability. This past year has been an amazing and intense blend of countless hours of research, discovery, discussion and regulatory interaction. We have been asked by the Alabama Department of Agriculture to assist in the development of this specific program (in an unofficial capacity) as it is so new to everyone and blends the nuances of growing true microgreens in a space that's never been done in most states- h**p. We are proud and humbled to be part of this. We are grateful for the opportunity to offer the Gulf Coast a product that will surprise you in its naturally nutritional and fundamentally supportive role in whole body health. We are offering the purest product on the market. No processing at all. Just pure plant. Safe for all and supportive of all body systems. , ,

Let's talk about science 🧐

Sulforaphane is a natural compound that is found abundantly in broccoli microgreens. These young and tender greens are packed with concentrated levels of sulforaphane, making them a fantastic source of this beneficial compound.

Sulforaphane is classified as an isothiocyanate, a group of sulfur-containing compounds known for their potent health-promoting properties. It is formed when a compound called glucoraphanin, found in broccoli microgreens, comes into contact with an enzyme called myrosinase during the chewing or chopping process.

Numerous scientific studies have highlighted the remarkable health benefits of sulforaphane. It acts as a powerful antioxidant, helping to protect your cells from damage caused by harmful free radicals. This oxidative stress protection is crucial for maintaining overall health and reducing the risk of chronic diseases.

In addition to its antioxidant properties, sulforaphane also possesses strong anti-inflammatory effects. Chronic inflammation is associated with a wide range of health conditions, including heart disease, cancer, and neurodegenerative disorders. By reducing inflammation in the body, sulforaphane may help mitigate the risk of these diseases.

Furthermore, sulforaphane has been shown to support the body's natural detoxification processes. It activates specific enzymes that assist in eliminating harmful toxins and carcinogens from the body. This detoxification potential makes sulforaphane a valuable ally in maintaining optimal health and preventing toxic buildup.

Research suggests that sulforaphane may have several other health benefits as well. It has been studied for its potential anti-cancer properties, particularly its ability to inhibit the growth of cancer cells and induce apoptosis (cell death) in certain types of cancer. Additionally, sulforaphane has been shown to support cardiovascular health by reducing blood pressure and improving blood vessel function.

Including broccoli microgreens in your diet is an excellent way to increase your intake of sulforaphane. These young greens can be easily incorporated into salads, smoothies, sandwiches, or used as a garnish for various dishes. With their intense flavor and impressive nutrient profile, broccoli microgreens offer a convenient and delicious way to enjoy the remarkable benefits of sulforaphane.

Pea shoots, so simple yet so versatile! These are more fibrous than the smaller, more tender ones like cabbage and broccoli. They pair so well with garlic (and lemon as well)! So good in soups, smoothies, wraps- and can be juiced as well.

Here's a few storage tips for Microgreens:

**Keep them loosely packed- they need breathing space!

**Place them In an airtight container and add a damp paper towel over them.

**Wait to wash them until you are ready to use! You can spritz them with cool water then pat dry, some folks use the salad spinner, but we find that a little harsh for the more tender ones like broccoli or mustard.

**They stay fresh longer if they are not exposed to a lot of temperature change, so place them on the back of the refrigerator shelf if you don't intend to use them right away.
But we're hoping you have found so many uses that they are gone in a flash!

One of our many kind, wonderful and (obviously!) creative customers allowed us to share a pic of her recent berry salad mixed with our newest addition to our repertoire- cantaloupe microgreens! The crunchy, fruity cantaloupe microgreen has so many positives to it- the nutrition is multiple times that of the whole fruit - a rich source of vitamins A, C, and K, as well as essential minerals like calcium, iron, magnesium, and potassium.

The secret to healthy eating? It's easier than you think.

Staying healthy doesn't have to mean bland, boring meals. In fact, with Crooked Carrot Microgreens, eating those veggies is going to be downright delicious!

Microgreens are the tiny version of full-grown vegetables, and they pack a major health punch. They are packed with nutrients—up to 40 times more than what a full-grown vegetable offers—and contain less water, too. And while they may be small in size, they aren't lacking in flavor.

At Crooked Carrot, we harvest our microgreens at their peak of nutrition and flavor, so you get all the good stuff in one bite. Our greens are fresh-cut 24 hours before delivery for optimal health benefits and taste. Plus, with our convenient delivery service, it's easier than ever to eat mindfully and well.
