Testimonials

I never liked putting greens like kale and broccoli in my morning smoothies, I couldn't get over the flavour and texture. Now I can blend a nutrient rich fruity smoothie without having to mix kale and banana together! The taste is incredibly crisp and fresh, also microgreens have more nutrients than their adult vegetables so it's truly a win win for me. I've got all the nutrients of the green stuff without the weird green soup! Littleleaf farms microgreens have boosted my daily routine and general health. I can't imagine not having a handful of greens mixed in with my salad or just on their own when I'm too lazy to make a salad! And I'm certain putting a pinch of littleleafs microgreens on top of any dish instantly turns it into a masterpiece. Amazing product!

To top it all off they are also the nicest people to deal with, bottom line is they ensure your complete satisfaction and then some. If you use shoots & micro greens in your kitchen then you 100 percent need to contact Littleleaf. You’ll be more then happy you did.

Little Leaf microgreens are the best microgreens I’ve had by far. I’ve eaten microgreens for quite a while now and there is no comparison to any other brand I’ve had. My family and I, including two young picky eaters, will eat them with everything, even on their own. Considering how nutritionally dense these are, it’s a huge win for any parent of small children. Add to smoothies, sandwiches, soups and even make into a pesto or chimmichurri. We’ve topped pizza, eggs, pasta and meats with these microgreens for extra flavour and boost of nutrition.
Kaylie S. Oshawa, ON

We love Littleleaf Farm Microgreens! They stay fresh and crispy for days, and the salad mix blend is a perfect combination of flavours. We use them as part of our daily salads, top soups and omelettes, and add them as a side dish to fish, chicken and steaks. Best micro greens we’ve tasted!
