Microgreens are tiny vegetable or herb greens grown for their visual appearance and complex flavours and textures. They are larger than sprouts but smaller than baby salad greens. They consist of a central stem, seed leaves and the first young two true leaves. Unlike sprouts, microgreens are grown in the light and in soil and the root is not harvested. When they are ready the stem is cut leaving the root behind. Because they are grown in the light, both the flavour and the nutritional content is greater than sprouts. M icrogreens are very healthy, with an average five times the level of vitamins and carotenoids than the mature plant. I never knew something so small could have so much taste. It was interesting learning about microgreens. Lettuce visit again! Daniel Thank you for lending us your time to go to Little River. I'm thanking you for letting us make huts, taste the microgreens, and patting the lamb. Another highlight was putting the shades on the plants! - Hann
