Packed with complete plant protein - 30% plus, a perfect balance of omega-3 and omega-6, and a ridiculous amount of vitamins and antioxidants, hemp microgreens are shaping up to be the next superfood nobody saw coming. The best part? They’re grown in just a few days, capturing green goodness at its peak before they even think about becoming a full-sized hemp plant.


If you’re imagining a grassy, hempy taste, think again. These microgreens bring a mild, nutty flavour sliding effortlessly into salads, smoothies, sandwiches, or just straight into your mouth. Unlike their more controversial older sibling, hemp microgreens contain zero THC, so no, they won’t get you high. But they will fuel your body with an impressive range of essential nutrients, anti-inflammatory flavonoids, and gut-loving fibre.


And the best part? They’re not just good for you, they’re great for the planet. Hemp is one of the most sustainable crops around, needing minimal water and zero pesticides while regenerating the soil it grows in. It’s a win-win - better for you, better for the earth.

Producers are starting to catch on. US based, Lone Jedi Organic Farm is leading the charge, growing fresh, organic, heirloom hemp microgreens for a fast-expanding customer base looking for the next big thing in nutrition. Meanwhile, MM-Hemp is getting in on the action, promoting the benefits of growing your own right from the comfort of your kitchen counter.


So, are hemp microgreens the future of greens? All signs point to yes. With their powerhouse nutrition, eco-friendly credentials, and easy incorporation into everyday meals, it’s only a matter of time before these tiny shoots are everywhere. The only question left is; are you ready to start munching on the future?
