Current Facts
Tiny seedlings of herbs and greens, nutritious MicroGreens are today’s popular gourmet garnish and flavor accent offering a multitude of colors, textures and distinct flavors. Grown in soil or soil-like materials, MicroGreens depend on sunlight and air circulation to flourish, unlike sprouts that grow in water and require a dark environment with high humidity. Cut just above the soil, MicroGreens are harvested one to two inches tall and seven to twenty-one days after planting when their very first leaves appear. Visually accentuating the fine dining experience, chic MicroGreens’ tasty stems and leaves create an eye-catching presentation that definitely delights diners.
Description/Taste
MicroGreen Mache produces attractive mini green leaves that offer a delicious nutty flavor.

Ideal for adding a nutty taste to mixed green fresh salads. Perfect edible garnish for main entrees, savory dishes, sandwiches and soups. To store, refrigerate in a sealed container. Use promptly for optimum quality, flavor and presentation.
