PURPOSE

At Good Water Farms, we believe that a plant-based diet is the key to a healthier future — and that microgreens are central to this shift. When cultivated using biodynamic and organic farming techniques, these versatile, tasty greens benefit both the planet and its inhabitants.

The first true leaves of an herb or vegetable, microgreens are cleaner, stronger and more flavorful than their traditional counterparts. They feature four to 40 times the vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, with 100% bioavailability and healing benefits on both physical and energetic levels. We also deliver them within a day of harvest, in a packaging system designed to maximize freshness and nutrient retention.  

Our regenerative methods mean our greens are grown in live, nutrient-rich soil for eight to 28 days, which allows them to develop into their perfect selves. Plus, our certification as one of the world’s few certified Biodynamic® microgreens farms guarantee they are of the highest quality. It confirms that, beyond rejecting pesticides and cultivation methods that strip food of its vital properties and lead to environmental imbalance, we organize the biodiversity of the farm to create a self-regulating and renewable ecosystem.

GROWING PROCESS

1 - We grow with certified organic soil, which is specially formulated for the earliest stages of plant growth. 2 - We place all of our seeds in living trays and depending on the variety we allow them to soak before germinating. 3 - We mature the trays in a temperature-controlled room making sure our plants get plenty of fresh air in the process. 4 - Afterwards, we move our microgreens onto rows in greenhouses or under high-watt lighting to ensure the plants get ample light. 5 - Nutrients are provided from the soil we use, and the filtered water.  6 - We grow. From days to even months, we nurture each microgreen seedling to its fullest potential. Human touch is the secret ingredient.
