Grown With Love – What Does It Mean?

“Grown with love in Aiken County, SC” is something that Vicki Simons at NKBJ Microgreens has said about her products from the beginning of her and Michael’s operation in 2019.

Grown with love in Aiken County, SC

But what does that mean?

You may be aware that plants respond to their environment and external stimuli.

Although any microgreens grower can provide the right growing environment — including growing media, light and water — we go above and beyond that by speaking lovingly and encouragingly to our seeds and seedlings.

Vicki also touches the plants from time to time to let them feel her enthusiasm and excitement about how well they are growing.

You may think that’s a little weird, but from an intention point of view, you get the benefit of her love, no matter which type of her microgreens you buy. 🙂

Want a little proof that a plant that is complimented does well compared to one that is spoken to negatively?

By the way, here is a list of her crops currently grown with love.
