Spring is in full swing here in the PNW. Everything is beginning to look incredibly lush and green which makes me realize just how bleak it was for so long. I tend to get a bit anxious waiting for the gardening season to begin so I like to grow sprouts and micro greens in my kitchen during the cooler months. Much of the soil used in farming is depleted, making the vegetables we eat less nutrient dense than decades prior. Micro greens and sprouts are power packed with vitamins and minerals like iron, zinc, and magnesium, making them an ideal snack or addition to your meal. Micro greens can be quite pricey when purchased at the store. Fortunately, the organic seeds are cheap to buy and they are easy to grow in your own kitchen. Make sure to wash them well.
