For thousands of years, we have relied on the diverse flavors of herbs and greens to add depth and richness to our food.
As one of our five senses, taste serves as a way for us to connect with our food and the world around us. Unfortunately, it often takes much of our time and effort to prepare these herbs to use in our recipes.
Our team at Organic America strive to bring you a solution in the form of our micro-greens.
These tasty organic little gems, including arugula, cilantro, and basil, have all been harvested at the peak of their flavorful perfection. Compacted densely into micro-sized leaves, the depth of flavor in each of these herbs will have your tastebuds pleasantly satisfied. Embodying the vibrant colors and liveliness that we often associate with high quality ingredients, these micro greens offer even more in the taste department and will leave you wonderfully impressed.
Give your chopping board a break, we’ve teamed up with Mother Nature and have done all of the work for you.
We at Organic America are so thankful for the amazing year we’ve had. We are grateful for every single person on our hardworking team, our farm that has produced the wonderful micro salads we have all grown to love, and most importantly, our valued customers and cherished supporters.
Here is to a day of thanks and blessings – we are celebrating well and hope you are doing the same.
Thank you, friends. 🙂
There goes a well-known saying: “The bigger the better” but in our journey striving to perfect the cultivation of our micro greens – it seems that may not always be the case.
According to a recent research study published in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, micro greens may have even more nutrients than their fully mature counterparts.
The study tested for phytochemical counts in 25 different kinds of micro greens. The results showed that the micro greens had more nutrients than the fully mature version of the same plants.
Micro cilantro boasts tons of beta-carotene, which has shown to neutralize cancer-causing chemicals. Micro cabbage and micro amaranth also contained ample amounts of essential vitamins C, K and E.
This is wonderful information to anyone who wants to get their nutrients but dread eating several cups of vegetables in order to do so. We know most kids fall into this category and micro greens now make it much easier to get your little ones to eat their veggies. Find yourself smiling because of this news? Well, so are we. 🙂
