Our Microgreens NOW AVAILABLE at Polks Folly Farm Market in Cedar Crest, NM

It's not much longer until the first day of Spring and we are SO looking forward to a fantastic 2023 growing season. But. I would be lying if I said I'm not thankful for winter and the season of rest. We accomplished a lot last year and that's something to celebrate!

We also have accomplished some big goals already for 2023! Jeff started the Microgreens project in January and by the end of January we had our Microgreens in the cooler case at Polks Folly Market in Cedar Crest, NM.  Polks Folly Market is located at 12128 NM-14 in Cedar Crest, NM. They are open Wed-Sunday 10am-5pm. We make freshly harvested deliveries to them every Wednesday morning.  Our offerings included: Sunflower, Pea, Broccoli, Rambo Radish and the very popular East Mountain Mix.

In early March, we added NEW Microgreens products to our offerings: Wasabi Mustard, Arugula, a beautiful purple Kohlrabi, and the extremely popular Sandia Spicy Mix.

Microgreens are nutritional powerhouse veggies with early research indicating, "...that microgreens contain up to 40% more phytochemicals (beneficial nutrients and components) than their full-grown counterparts."

The same article referenced above--and several other articles easily found via internet search--states that Microgreens MAY also:

• help fight cancer
• help lower cholesterol
• help support gut health
• help lower blood pressure

How to use Microgreens: Add them to soups, salads, sandwiches or snack on them plain. Since they are small, it's not necessary or recommended to cook Microgreens but you should be sure to wash them (and any produce or veggie) before serving them.

If you've never tried Microgreens before, you really should! They are so delicious and so extra good for you. If you love spicy things, be sure to grab some Sandia Spicy Mix (and an extra container of Wasabi Mustard, it's my favorite!).
