DeHart: New salad greens introduced to Okanagan

Avenue M Microgreens grows certified organic non-GMO seeds from Mumm香蕉视频直播檚, inside for delectable salads.

Avenue M Microgreens is a new unique business that grows and sells a variety of microgreens.


MmicrogreensOwned and operated by Tina and Ralph Gerlitsch, the microgreens are grown indoors using certified organic non-GMO seeds from Mumm香蕉视频直播檚 in Saskatchewan. The Gerlitschs use only degassed water and follow strict organic growing practices with their microgreen products. Microgreens are baby salad greens, a little bit like sprouts and grown in soil. Microgreens are one of the newest foods used by chefs and home cooks. Grown in trays, there is a seven to 10-day turn-around, which is a new way of urban farming. Avenue M grows microgreens from spicy hot radish, baby broccoli, crunchy red cabbage, oriental mustard, Tokyo Bekana mustard, arugula, pea shoots, sunflower shoots, sweet wheatgrass and a micro mix. They can be used in sandwiches, salads, soups, wraps, on top of your favourite pizza, or as a garnish or a stand-alone veggie with a sushi accompaniment. Not only are they delicious, they are nutritious. Did you know that one ounce of broccoli microgreens (28 grams) is equivalent to 1.5 pounds broccoli florets for the same nutrient value? Avenue M microgreens are available exclusively right now at Quality Greens Farm Market locations.
