Mini Microgreen Market

Do the microgreens ever end?
Not really!

Even once the regular full season markets start up they keep getting germinated, harvested, and packed up for you. But until then, they are available every Thursday from 12-1pm inside the Libby Chamber

The microgreens are lovin' their warm, humid grow room. It's also nice to walk into when it's a little frigid outside.
What are Microgreens?
 
  • Microgreens are the young shoots of some of you favorite veggies, herbs, and even edible flowers.
  • They are soil-grown, usually in shallow trays, but sometimes directly in a garden (this is different than sprouts that are germinated in water only)
  • Most grow very fast and harvest is usually within 7-14 days after sowing
  • They are harvested just before or just after the first true leaf appears (this can sometimes be a window of only a few hours!)
  • They are packed full of nutrients and minerals for the good of your body 
  • I pick the ones with the tastiest flavors (healthy things don't need to taste icky or bland!)
  • They keep for about 7-10 days after harvest so you gotta buy them fresh and local
One of the projects I've been busy working on in my winter cabin cave is a bevy of beaded bracelets and rings! They'll be making their debut at the Sweethearts Market on February 11th in Libby.
After that they'll be available online!

No cuddly photos this week cause the cats & kittens discovered that the previous melty temps followed by some freezing temps means a solid snowpack and they can go everywhere and anywhere, which also meant I had to do a lot of monitoring from the cabin windows and porch like a worried parent watching their kids do potentially dangerous things □
Where to find it all?

The Mini Microgreen Market of course, running all winter!
Thursdays from 12-1pm at the Libby Chamber of Commerce
*come inside where it's warm & toasty while the micros are chill in their mini cooler*
