This past STEM microgreen workshop at the North White Plains Library brought young learners together for a guided exploration of growing food at home. With plenty of laughter, smiles, and even parents joining in on the fun, the workshop was a wonderful success!

We explored plant life cycles - beginning with common seeds, moving into sensory exploration with samples to see, smell, and taste, and concluding by planting individual microgreen grow kits

Each participant stepped into the role of plant scientist, approaching the activity with curiosity and enthusiasm. They left with a fully planted grow kit and an observation journal and coloring book designed to track growth day by day - continuing the learning experience at home over the coming weeks

A thoughtful afternoon of learning, curiosity, and growth. We look forward to seeing you at the next microgreen workshop!

Next Tuesday March 31st, I’ll be at the (North White Plains location) guiding young learners through the earliest stages of plant growth

Using a simple, soil-free system, participants will set up their own grow kit and learn how seeds germinate, develop, and transform into edible greens. Along the way, they’ll observe each stage closely and record their progress in an observation journal as the days unfold

Over the following weeks, those early sprouts will continue to grow - offering a firsthand look at how food develops and how fresh greens can be grown right at home

Incredible times are to be had when microgreens are invited to a Valentine’s Day Mardi Gras Birthday Party~!

To honor the occasion, two different varieties of radish microgreens were planted to create a bright purple heart among a backdrop of green leaves. Served alongside a catered spread, this edible art added a fresh note to the decadent feast - a little serving of love helped to create a whole lot of contentment

And of course, no Valentine’s Day Mardi Gras Birthday Party would be complete without a proper photoshoot! Between handmade masks, glittering baubles, and much laughter, many happy memories were made

This past Sunday we had the pleasure of joining the second annual Rockland Pet Palooza at .store in Nanuet. The turnout was remarkable, with many visitors stopping by to learn about our Pet Grass microgreens for their cats, dogs and other furry and feathered friends. The kittens available for adoption were especially taken with the Pet Grass - once they discovered it was meant for eating rather than sparring…!

The Pet Palooza also presented us with a great opportunity to collaborate with The Taco Boys of Nyack, who featured our Cilantro Microgreens on their menu for the day. Their beef tacos, rich and savory, paired perfectly with the citrusy brightness of the microgreens, showcasing just how much flavor these tiny leaves can bring to a dish

It was a meaningful event, full of conversations and connections with the local pet-loving community, and we’re grateful to have been a part of it~!
