Microgreens Workshop: Food-First Nutrition + Grow-Your-Own Kit

Curious about microgreens but not sure where to start? Join us for a beginner-friendly, hands-on workshop that combines a practical nutrition lesson with a guided microgreens kit setup—so you leave knowing why microgreens matter and exactly how to grow them at home. This is perfect for the general public, and we’d love to see past herb workshop attendees too.

Dates/Time: June 17th | 7:00–8:00 PM

What you’ll learn + take home
- A clear understanding of what microgreens offer nutritionally—and how to use them daily
- A simple food-first framework for vitamins (and when multivitamins may be helpful)
- A microgreens kit + the confidence to grow and harvest at home
- Easy, realistic meal ideas to use what you grow

What to expect (60 minutes)
Part 1: Nutrition Lesson led by Enlightened Nutrition (RDN). We’ll cover Microgreens 101, the “big 4” nutrients commonly found in microgreens (Vitamin C, Vitamin A, Vitamin K, Folate), and how to think about supplements in a supportive, food-first way. You’ll also get a simple handout: Microgreens Nutrition + 10 Ways to Use Them.

Part 2: Guided Kit Setup led by Heather Hart from Wild Hart Acres. Heather will walk you through seeding your tray, watering + light basics, troubleshooting, and when/how to harvest and store your microgreens.

Bring a friend, come with questions, and get ready to grow something you’ll actually use.

Spots are limited—register early.

Our first Microgreens Workshop is this Wednesday, June 3rd from 7-8pm! This workshop will be all about getting nutrition from food sources first, then using supplements as a backup, if needed. Microgreens are rich in vitamins and minerals, so using them as a nutritional boost is a simple, easy addition to meals. You even get to leave with your own microgreens kit and the information on how to grow and harvest them.

What questions do you have about food-first nutrition and/or microgreens? Drop your questions in the comments!

If you can’t make it to this week’s event there’s another chance June 17th.

Can’t wait to see you there!
