Micro Alfalfa

Alfalfa microgreens are young seedlings of the alfalfa plant, scientifically known as Medicago sativa, and are celebrated for their vibrant green colour and delicate texture. These microgreens are typically harvested just after the first true leaves, or cotyledons, have developed, which usually occurs within 7 to 14 days after germination. Rich in essential nutrients, alfalfa microgreens are a powerhouse of vitamins A, C, E, and K, as well as minerals such as calcium, magnesium, and potassium. Their mild, slightly nutty flavour makes them a versatile addition to a variety of dishes, including salads, sandwiches, and smoothies. Furthermore, alfalfa microgreens are known for their high antioxidant content, which can contribute to overall health by combating oxidative stress in the body.
