Question 1

What are microgreens?

Accepted Answer

Microgreens are young vegetable greens harvested 7-14 days after germination. They are packed with concentrated nutrients — containing 4 to 40 times more vitamins and minerals than their mature counterparts, according to a landmark 2012 study in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry.

Question 3

How do I order microgreens from Kenny Fresh?

Accepted Answer

Visit kennyfreshmicrogreens.com and place your order by Tuesday at 5:00 PM EST. We plant your microgreens Tuesday evening after orders close, grow them for 10 days, harvest Saturday morning, and deliver to your door the same day. So fresh we don't plant until you order.

Question 4

Are microgreens worth the price?

Accepted Answer

Microgreens deliver 4 to 40 times more nutrients per gram than mature vegetables. For example, broccoli microgreens contain 40 times more sulforaphane than mature broccoli. You use small amounts (a handful per meal), so a 100g container lasts 3-4 servings. At roughly $3 per nutrient-dense serving, they are one of the most cost-effective ways to boost your nutrition.

Question 5

How long do microgreens last after delivery?

Accepted Answer

Kenny Fresh microgreens are harvested within 24 hours of delivery, so they arrive at peak freshness. Stored properly in the refrigerator at 35-40°F in their original container, they typically stay fresh for 7-10 days. Because we harvest so close to delivery, you get maximum shelf life compared to store-bought microgreens.
