If you live or work in the greater Aiken, SC, area, you may wonder about your options for getting microgreens.
Here at NKBJ Microgreens, we summarize everything in 5 easy steps:
- Product Choice (see our Crops Grown With Love);
- Product Size:
- either in a Deli Tray (recipe-ready harvested product);
- or in a Live Grow Tray (customer cares for live product until self-harvest);
- Product Receipt:
- pick up at the Aiken County Farmers Market on Saturdays; or
- get free delivery to a home or business in the greater Aiken, SC, area with a minimum order;
- Order Frequency:
- either based on product availability;
- or become a Subscription Program member who:
- locks in your preference of products grown for you;
- orders at least once every two weeks; and
- gets a Microgreens Loyalty Card; and
- Order Method:
- call or text Michael Simons at 803-295-8784 (texting is preferable);
- show up in-person at the farmers market and buy based on product availability; or
- get Reserved Microgreens by texting Michael at (803) 295-8784 by no later than noon on the Friday before the Saturday you pick up.
Please note that microgreens require 9-12 days lead time to grow and Michael grows them based on:
- either what customers commit to buying;
- or what he anticipates will sell.
Remember that “Researchers with the University of Maryland College of Agriculture and Natural Resources (AGNR) and the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA)… discovered that the microgreens contained four to 40 times more nutrients than their mature counterparts.” (link)
We provide elsewhere specifics about selling Living Microgreens.
