Mini Microgreen Market

These days I feel as busy as a bee even if there is nothing to plant or pollinate yet!

Each week my list of seeds to sow is longer and ever growing,
but if you've found some seeds you no longer want or have questions about how to save those varieties you love, come to the Seed Swap this Saturday, March 11th from 12-2pm at the Amish Farm to Market Store in Libby, MT. 
I'll be there with some farm-saved seeds to swap and share as well as giving an Introduction to Seed Saving and answering your burning questions.

Don't let the name fool you, the Mild Mix is the wildest blend kale, cabbage, and broccoli □. It's just a mild kinda wild!

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

​While the cats had to stay in while I was cleaning the barn,
cause if it's not good for me to breathe it all in,
it's also not good for them.

But now while I categorize,
organize, and systematize
everything in the workshop and barn,
they get to play in the Hawthorne and Chokecherry bramble behind the barn!
