A Seed of Inspiration

Our journey with microgreens began not in a boardroom, but in a sunny windowsill. We were avid home gardeners, constantly seeking ways to infuse our meals with fresh, vibrant flavors. One day, we stumbled upon the fascinating world of microgreens – tiny seedlings bursting with concentrated nutrients and taste. Intrigued, we experimented, planting a small tray of sunflower shoots. The results were astounding! These miniature greens packed a punch of peppery goodness, transforming our salads from bland to brilliant. 

What we Envision

OUR vision is delightfully simple: We want Microgreens Silo to be a global resource, offering FREE access to knowledge so everyone can get healthy microgreens for themselves, their loved ones, and even their businesses.

As our passion for microgreens grew, so did our desire to share their magic with others. We envisioned a world where everyone could experience the joy of adding these flavorful bursts of nutrition to their meals. Fueled by this vision, we expanded our operation from a windowsill experiment to a dedicated microgreens farm. We adopted sustainable growing practices, ensuring our greens were not only delicious but also environmentally responsible. 

Bringing Nutrition with a Passion for Flavor

That tiny tray of sunflower shoots sparked a fire. We were hooked! We dig deeper, learning about the incredible diversity of microgreens, each with its unique flavor profile. We discovered the delicate sweetness of pea shoots, the earthy bite of radish microgreens, and the tangy zest of mustard greens. Our windowsill garden quickly transformed into a miniature microgreens haven, overflowing with vibrant colors and tantalizing aromas and now we’re further discovering new flavors that come with the nutrition of these microgreens.
