When you’re a microgreen farmer and you ❤️ your own product because it’s GREAT. Pan seared salmon trout in salted butter froth (prepared medium to rare) on a bed of cruciferous micros (cabbage & broccoli), an orange baked sweet potato and 3 beets. DELICIOUS and SUPER NUTRITIOUS!

Look how beautiful our back garden is looking. Edible flowers beaming under our African sun. Perfect addition to a fresh summer green salad.

‘SUCCULENT SWORDFISH STEAKS’
On a bed of cruciferous leafy Microgreens

What’s the secret (other than the nutritious delectable Microgreens)?

Pan-seared on a drizzle of olive oil, topped with a flavour-bursting compound butter comprising of fresh ginger, fresh garden-picked sage, fresh garlic, lemon zest from home grown lemons, S&P and dried chill flakes.

And for that little extra… 2 steamed beets to bump up the palate. Too delicious not to share. Prep time 5 minutes, cook time 6 minutes… Flavour IMO - 5 star Michelin. 👍

BeLeaf Micro Greenhouse, situated in Green Point - Cape Town, is a small Urban Farm, growing microgreens in a strictly controlled environment. All our microgreens are grown using non-GMO seeds, and without the
use of pesticides, herbicides or any synthetic fertilizers.

We supply freshly-harvested microgreens to both private consumers and local restaurants
in the Atlantic Seaboard and surrounding areas.

As a socially conscious company, we are committed to low-impact agriculture, using 90% less water than traditional farming and our urban location eliminates nearly all food miles.

BeLeaf Micro Greenhouse uses organic growing methods and, from a sustainability perspective,
only uses environmentaly-safe cleaning products, natural sanitisers and plant-based packaging.

As part of our social investment initiative, spent trays of post-harvest organic grow medium is donated
to the “Community Kids Pot”, a childrens charity in Philippi, and used to feed their chickens.
This then helps to provide food for 200 children in the Marikana Township daily.

Our priority is to optimize both shelf life and flavour by providing the quickest supply chain; growing, harvesting, packaging, and delivering all from one facility.

“NUTRITIOUS Microgreens from seed to mouth as fast as possible”
