Organic Wheat Grass Microgreens

Organic

Product Number : 84237

Our vertical farming platform allows the production of local microgreens, directly from our Laval branch. The seeds are sown there in potting soil and spend a few days in the dark to initiate their germination, before being exposed to LED light to continue their development until harvest. This initiative translates into obtaining healthy, fresh and organic food in a natural way while reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

More Information

Organic wheat grass.
Contains wheat.
USE
The platform's production system is fully programmed according to the species of microgreens grown, resulting in the production of high quality microgreens with exceptional taste. Also, the fact that the microgreens are grown directly in the store and then offered to consumers, provides incomparable freshness. Consume wheat grass microgreens as juice using an extractor: drink 1 to 2 ounces per day, 30 minutes before a meal or 2 hours after.

CONSERVATION
For optimal conservation, refrigerate the microgreens in their original container (with the lid). To harvest, cut the desired amount at the base and rinse with cold water. Return microgreens to the refrigerator. Microgreens can be left on the counter for a few days, out of direct sunlight. When they take them out of the refrigerator, however, they must acclimatize: it is therefore important to wait 2 hours before removing the cover.

TREATMENT
Add 30 to 50 ml of water daily or as needed. They can also be cut and placed in the refrigerator in a closed container.
Microgreens contain a high content of chlorophyll as well as an antioxidant, alkalinizer, oxygenator and purifier. They are also a rich source of micronutrients such as minerals (calcium, copper, iron, manganese, magnesium, phosphorus and zinc) and vitamins of types A, B and C. Microgreens are therefore a food of choice to add as part of a healthy and balanced diet.
ORGANIC AGRICULTURE
NaturellementBio microgreens have obtained Ecocert Canada certification, meaning that they are grown without any synthetic chemicals such as GMOs and pesticides.

ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY
Our facilities significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions since they are operated with renewable energy and reduce the transport of food (as it is grown locally).

GROWN YEAR-ROUND
The products grown in our greenhouses are controlled and monitored remotely in real time by a team of agronomists for a period of one to three weeks, which is renewed after each harvest to provide food of incomparable freshness in all seasons.
