Black Oil Sunflower MicroGreens are a great protein source and have all the building blocks needed to form the essential amino acids our bodies require. The sunflower microgreen is a more potent nutritional and medicinal food source when compared to eating raw sunflower seeds, especially for the absorption of magnesium and zinc. These have a crunchy and pleasant nutty flavor. A hearty staple to any salad, wrap or sandwich, and makes for an excellent snack. We personally use these greens for a base to our salads (instead of lettuce), we also enjoy tossing handfuls into our fermented raw sauerkraut and drizzled with olive oil, we add handfuls to our smoothies and or juice these with our wheatgrass shots. Sunflower MicroGreens have a nutritional profile of several antioxidants, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial and cardiovascular benefits. In Europe & Asia these microgreens are used to treat pulmonary and laryngeal infections, heart disease, colds and coughs.

Organic seeds, organic soil and organically grown void of chemicals, fertilizers, or pesticides with pure pH balanced water and low heat LED lighting.
