About this episode

I'm joined on this episode by Pepe Fassos who runs Five Sixty Farms, where grows and sells both living and harvested microgreens that are grown in a green house using natural sunlight. If you've been looking for information on running a microgreens business from a greenhouse, this is the episode for you.

In this episode you'll learn:

  • Why you might choose to grow outside using the sun, instead of inside under lights.
  • Why you might sell both living and harvested microgreens.
  • What it takes to run a microgreens farm in extreme temperatures and humidity.
  • How letting the true leaves appear on your microgreens may be more appealing to chefs.
  • How growing and selling locally will always produce higher quality microgreens than a wholesalers.
  • How automation and machines may reduce the quality of your microgreens.
