April 6, 2015 | 2 min to read
BrightFresh™ Microgreens are now available up and down the entire west coast, in Albertsons, Haggen, Vons and selected Whole Foods and other specialty food retailers. BrightFresh™ Microgreens are the Gold-Standard of quality for the category and are offered in the following varieties: Micro Rainbow Mix™ , Micro Radish Mix™ , Micro Kale Mix™, Micro Cilantro and Micro Broccoli. Colorful Squash Blossoms are also available.
Awareness of Microgreens is growing rapidly among consumers. This is being driven mostly by the foodie movement. Home cooks have been experiencing Microgreens at fine dining white tablecloth restaurants for years. America's top chefs have been using this unique ingredient to add bright fresh flavors and visual appeal to their cuisine. Now foodies are watching how Microgreens are used on popular television shows like Iron Chef.
BrightFresh™ Microgreens attract highly sought after consumers who are looking for ways to enhance their meals at home. BrightFresh™ Microgreens are an ideal "Basket Builder" that starts with our specialty greens and leads to a premium piece of meat and some good cheeses, a bottle of fine wine and dessert. BrightFresh Microgreens inspire home cooks to create that fine-dining restaurant experience for their families at home.
BrightFresh™ Microgreens are not produced under artificial lights in an urban plant factory, they are grown honestly on a real farm in the bright natural sunshine and fresh air of San Diego, California. This makes a huge difference in the quality, flavor, and color. Attempting to produce Microgreens in a high-density urban plant factory results in long stringy stems and very tiny leaves. There is almost no flavor or nutrition in these stems. Since natural sunshine is free and electricity for artificial lights costs 100 times more than water, it is simply not sustainable to attempt to produce Microgreens in an urban plant factory process. With BrightFresh™ Microgreens, they are nurtured in the ideal growing conditions to produce the same fine dining, restaurant quality used by America's top chefs. Short stems, well-expanded leaves with exceptional flavor and shelf-life are the hallmarks of BrightFresh™ Microgreens. Please contact us for more information and samples.
