  • 40x more sulforaphane than mature broccoli (Johns Hopkins research)[1]
  • Vitamins: C, K, A, E, plus B-complex (B1, B2, B3, B6, folate)
  • Minerals: Calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, zinc
  • Protein: 3-4g per 100g
  • Fiber: Supports digestive health
  • Phytonutrients: Glucoraphanin (sulforaphane precursor), glucosinolates, carotenoids

When researchers at Johns Hopkins identified sulforaphane in 1992, they changed cancer research forever. That compound exists at 20-50 times higher concentrations in these microgreens than in full-grown broccoli.[2]

Cancer Prevention & Defense

Sulforaphane activates Phase 2 detoxification enzymes that neutralize carcinogens before they can damage your DNA.[3] Clinical trials in China demonstrated that daily consumption of broccoli sprout extracts significantly reduced biomarkers of carcinogen exposure in high-risk populations.[4] We're talking measurable protection against breast, prostate, colon, and lung cancers.[5]

Cardiovascular Protection

The combination of sulforaphane and vitamin K works to prevent calcification of arteries. Meanwhile, folate helps regulate homocysteine levels, a major risk factor for cardiovascular events. Studies show regular cruciferous vegetable consumption correlates with lower risk of death from heart disease.[6]

Detoxification Support

Sulforaphane stimulates Phase 2 enzymes that help process and eliminate environmental toxins.[7] Research shows it can boost benzene excretion by up to 61%,[8] particularly beneficial if you're exposed to urban air quality or tobacco smoke.

Brain Health & Cognitive Function

Sulforaphane activates the Nrf2 pathway, protecting neurons from oxidative stress and inflammation.[9] Clinical studies suggest it may slow cognitive decline in older adults and shows promise in research on autism spectrum disorder and schizophrenia.[10]

Mild cruciferous with a whisper of pepper. Imagine the essence of broccoli without the assertiveness. Tender, crisp without being crunchy, mild enough that even broccoli skeptics find themselves reaching for more.

Perfect For:

  • Morning Smoothies: Blend a handful into your fruit smoothie—you won't taste them, but your cells will know they're there
  • Avocado Toast Upgrade: Layer them on smashed avocado on whole grain toast. The healthy fats in avocado multiply absorption of fat-soluble vitamins by up to 12x
  • Stealth Nutrition in Wraps: Tuck them into any wrap or sandwich where you'd normally use lettuce for exponentially more nutritional impact
  • Other microgreens: Pairs beautifully with red cabbage (vitamin C boost), sunflower (protein power), or kale (calcium support)
  • Healthy fats: Olive oil, avocado, nuts, seeds—these create the "delivery vehicle" that multiplies absorption of fat-soluble vitamins A, E, and K
  • Citrus: Lemon or lime juice enhances sulforaphane bioavailability
  • Protein sources: Eggs, chicken, salmon, tofu—amino acids work synergistically with the nutrients in microgreens
  • Whole grains: Quinoa, brown rice, or whole wheat provide fiber that supports beneficial compounds reaching your lower intestine

Your broccoli microgreens arrive fresh-cut within 24 hours of harvest—when nutritional density is at its absolute peak. Sulforaphane content starts declining the moment they're cut, which is exactly why we deliver them while they're still nutritionally loaded.

  • Storage: Keep in container in refrigerator at 35-40°F. Don't wash until right before use
  • Lifespan: 5-7 days for optimal nutrition and texture. We recommend consuming within the first 3-4 days for maximum health impact
  • Prep: Quick, gentle rinse in cold water right before eating. Pat dry with paper towel or use a salad spinner. Add raw to finished dishes—heat degrades sulforaphane
  • Usage tip: Chewing thoroughly or chopping/blending activates myrosinase, the enzyme that converts glucoraphanin into active sulforaphane
Sunflower Microgreens

Sunflower Microgreens

The Complete Protein Champion

All nine essential amino acids your body can't produce on its own. That's 25% protein by weight—higher than most beans. These are microgreens with serious muscle-building credentials.

  • Complete protein: All 9 essential amino acids
  • 25% protein by weight—higher than most beans
  • Vitamins: A, B-complex (B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, folate), C, D, E, K
  • Minerals: Calcium, iron, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, potassium, selenium, zinc, copper
  • Healthy fats: Omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, phytosterols
  • Amino acid profile: Valine, threonine, tryptophan, methionine, leucine, isoleucine, lysine, histidine

Muscle Growth, Repair & Recovery

The branched-chain amino acids (leucine, valine, isoleucine) are the holy trinity of muscle metabolism. Leucine directly stimulates protein synthesis and muscle growth while regulating blood sugar. Whether you're recovering from a workout, healing from injury, or maintaining muscle mass as you age, these amino acids are doing the heavy lifting at the cellular level.

Cardiovascular Health

The phytosterols in sunflower microgreens compete with cholesterol for absorption, effectively blocking cholesterol uptake. Clinical trials show that consuming at least 1.3g of plant sterols daily lowers LDL cholesterol levels.[26] The vitamin E content provides additional cardiovascular protection.

Brain Function & Cognitive Health

These greens contain the compounds your brain uses to build neurotransmitters—specifically tyrosine, dopamine, epinephrine, and norepinephrine. Tryptophan helps produce serotonin, regulating appetite, sleep, and mood. Vitamin E may help prevent Alzheimer's disease by protecting brain cells from oxidative damage.

Pregnancy & Fetal Development

The folate content is crucial for pregnant women—it prevents serious congenital disabilities of the developing brain and spine (neural tube defects).[25] The complete protein profile provides the building blocks needed for rapid fetal growth.

Nutty, crunchy, absolutely satisfying. Imagine the taste of sunflower seeds transformed into a green, crunchy bite. There's that familiar nutty undertone, slightly sweet, with a fresh green finish. The texture is substantial—hearty enough to hold up in cooked dishes, crunchy enough to add serious texture to salads.

Perfect For:

  • Power Sandwiches & Wraps: These have the structural integrity to replace lettuce entirely. The crunch holds up, the nutty flavor complements everything from turkey to tempeh
  • Protein-Packed Salads: Make a sunflower microgreen base salad with grilled chicken, quinoa, roasted vegetables, and tahini dressing
  • Stir-Fry Finish: Add a generous handful right at the end of your stir-fry—literally the last 30 seconds. They wilt slightly but maintain crunch
  • Other microgreens: Pairs exceptionally well with broccoli (sulforaphane meets protein), pea shoots (complementary amino acids), or radish (protein meets spice)
  • Asian flavors: Soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger, garlic—the nutty flavor profile is a natural match for Asian cuisine
  • Tahini & nut butters: The nuttiness compounds beautifully; try them in a tahini-based dressing or Buddha bowl
  • Grains & legumes: Quinoa, brown rice, lentils, chickpeas—combining plant proteins creates complete amino acid profiles
  • Robust proteins: These can handle strong flavors—pair with steak, salmon, tofu, or tempeh without getting lost

These arrive fresh with their full amino acid profile intact and ready to fuel your body. The complete protein content remains stable, but overall freshness matters for texture and flavor.

  • Storage: Refrigerate at 35-40°F in their container. These are heartier than some microgreens but still benefit from prompt refrigeration. Keep them relatively dry—they're more tolerant of light moisture than delicate varieties, but excess water still shortens shelf life.
  • Lifespan: 5-7 days for optimal crunch, flavor, and nutrition. The protein and amino acids remain stable longer than some vitamins, but texture and flavor are best in the first 5 days.
  • Prep: Quick rinse in cold water before use. Pat dry well—these can hold water in their leaves. They're sturdy enough that you don't need to be as gentle as with more delicate varieties.
  • Versatility note: Unlike some microgreens that must be eaten raw, sunflower shoots can handle brief exposure to heat (last 30-60 seconds of cooking). Most vitamins benefit from raw consumption, but the protein and minerals remain stable with light cooking.
Radish Microgreens

Radish Microgreens

The Bold Detoxifier

That distinctive peppery kick delivers more than flavor—it's your liver's activation signal. Loaded with antioxidants and liver-supporting compounds that actually do the work.

Regular Standing Order
from $5.59 /week
One-time: $6.99 (save 20% on standing order)
  • Vitamins: C (mega-dose), A, E, K, B-complex
  • Minerals: Calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, zinc
  • Antioxidants: Anthocyanins, carotenoids, flavonoids
  • Glucosinolates: Liver detoxification support
  • Isothiocyanates: Anti-inflammatory compounds

Liver Detoxification

The glucosinolates in radish microgreens activate Phase 2 detoxification enzymes in your liver. These enzymes help process and eliminate toxins, from alcohol to environmental pollutants. The peppery compounds signal your liver to ramp up its natural cleansing processes.

Immune System Support

Radish microgreens deliver a mega-dose of vitamin C—essential for immune cell production and function. The antioxidants protect immune cells from oxidative damage, keeping your defense system operating at peak efficiency.

Anti-Inflammatory Action

The isothiocyanates provide powerful anti-inflammatory effects throughout the body. These compounds help reduce chronic inflammation linked to arthritis, heart disease, and other inflammatory conditions.

Digestive Health

The natural enzymes and fiber in radish microgreens support healthy digestion. They stimulate bile production, which aids fat digestion and helps maintain regular bowel movements.

Bold, peppery, unapologetic. These microgreens announce themselves with a distinctive spicy kick reminiscent of mature radishes but more refined. The heat builds gradually and cleanly, without overwhelming bitterness.

Perfect For:

  • Taco Topper: Replace or mix with cilantro on tacos for a spicy, crunchy finish that adds both heat and nutrition
  • Burger Upgrade: Layer on burgers for a peppery punch that cuts through rich meats and cheeses
  • Spicy Salad Base: Mix with milder greens to add excitement and depth to any salad
  • Sushi Garnish: The peppery heat complements fish beautifully and adds a fresh, spicy element
  • Other microgreens: Balances well with mild varieties like sunflower (protein to temper spice), broccoli (complementary sulforaphane), or amaranth (iron support)
  • Rich, fatty foods: Avocado, salmon, cream cheese, tahini—fat mellows the heat and creates balance while improving vitamin absorption
  • Asian flavors: Soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger, rice vinegar—these flavors naturally complement radish's peppery character
  • Citrus: Lemon or lime brightens the peppery notes and provides vitamin C
  • Creamy elements: Yogurt-based dressings, hummus, mayo-based sauces—creaminess tempers spice and creates textural contrast

These arrive fresh-cut with their glucosinolate content ready to activate the moment you chew them. The peppery compounds are produced when cells are crushed (by chewing or chopping), so freshness matters for both flavor and health benefits.

  • Storage: Refrigerate at 35-40°F in their container. Radish microgreens are relatively hardy compared to delicate varieties, but still benefit from proper storage. Keep them dry until use.
  • Lifespan: 5-7 days for optimal spice level, crunch, and nutrition. The longer they sit, the less pungent they become—which might be good or bad depending on your heat tolerance. For maximum spice and cancer-fighting compounds, use within 4-5 days.
  • Prep: Rinse right before use. These can handle a bit more vigorous rinsing than delicate varieties—they're sturdy. Pat dry or spin in a salad spinner.
  • Pro tip: Chew thoroughly or chop before swallowing. The myrosinase enzyme that converts glucosinolates into beneficial isothiocyanates only activates when plant cells are broken down. Don't just swallow them whole—let your teeth do the work that makes these nutritionally powerful.
Pea Shoots

Pea Shoots

The Sweet Protein Booster

Surprisingly sweet for something this nutritious. High-quality plant protein meets genuine flavor appeal. These are the microgreens that win over skeptics.

Regular Standing Order
from $5.59 /week
One-time: $6.99 (save 20% on standing order)
  • Protein: 5-6g per 100g—exceptional for a green vegetable
  • Vitamins: A, C, K, folate, B-vitamins
  • Minerals: Iron, calcium, magnesium, potassium, phosphorus
  • Fiber: Supports digestive health and satiety

Plant-Based Protein Power

Pea shoots deliver exceptional protein levels for a green vegetable—5-6g per 100g. This high-quality plant protein supports muscle maintenance, tissue repair, and sustained energy throughout your day.

Eye Health

Rich in vitamin A and carotenoids, pea shoots support healthy vision and protect against age-related macular degeneration. The vitamin C content also contributes to eye health by protecting against oxidative stress.

Blood Sugar Regulation

The fiber and protein combination in pea shoots helps slow sugar absorption, promoting stable blood sugar levels. This makes them an excellent choice for managing energy levels and preventing crashes.

Bone Health

The combination of calcium, vitamin K, magnesium, and phosphorus supports bone density and strength. These nutrients work synergistically to maintain skeletal health throughout life.

Sweet, tender, garden-fresh. These taste like spring—a gentle sweetness reminiscent of fresh peas with a crisp, juicy texture. They're tender without being delicate, substantial without being tough.

Perfect For:

  • Quick Stir-Fries: Add in the final minute of cooking for a sweet, tender addition that wilts perfectly
  • Spring Salads: The natural sweetness pairs beautifully with light vinaigrettes and fresh vegetables
  • Asian Soups: Float a handful on top of ramen, pho, or miso soup for added nutrition and fresh flavor
  • Simple Side Dish: Sauté quickly with garlic and sesame oil for a 2-minute vegetable side
  • Other microgreens: Pairs beautifully with sunflower (complementary protein), amaranth (iron support), or radish (contrasting spice) in complete blends
  • Asian cuisine: Naturally at home with soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger, miso—the sweetness complements umami flavors
  • Spring vegetables: Asparagus, sugar snap peas, baby carrots, spring onions—celebrates the season
  • Mild proteins: Chicken, white fish, tofu, eggs—the gentle flavor works with delicate proteins
  • Creamy elements: Ricotta, goat cheese, yogurt-based dressings—creates textural and flavor contrast

These arrive fresh-cut with their complete amino acid profile and sweet flavor intact. Pea shoots are relatively hardy compared to delicate varieties, but proper storage maintains quality.

  • Storage: Refrigerate at 35-40°F in their container. Pea shoots can handle slightly more moisture than some varieties without wilting as quickly—they're fairly robust.
  • Lifespan: 5-7 days for optimal sweetness, crunch, and nutrition. The protein and amino acids remain stable, but freshness impacts texture and flavor. Use within 5-6 days for best quality.
  • Prep: Rinse just before use. These can handle regular rinsing without being overly gentle—they're sturdy. Spin dry in a salad spinner or pat with paper towels.
  • Versatility note: Pea shoots can handle brief exposure to heat better than many microgreens. While raw is ideal for maximum nutrition, adding them in the last minute of cooking creates a pleasant wilt without destroying nutrients—unlike delicate varieties that turn to mush.
