MICRO HERB & SPROUTING

Fairbanks Micro herb and sprouting selection offers a comprehensive range of options, including an extensive range of herbs, sprouting broccoli and cabbage, kale, coloured radishes, mizuna and rocket.

Micro Herbs are used as a gourmet garnish for meals and salads, or as a side salad when a micro herb mix is made. The small leaves add flavour and colour to any dish, whilst also adding nutritional value. Fairbanks has a very broad range of Micro-herbs with over 30 different varieties available.

Micro herbs can also be referred to as Micro greens, these terms are interchangeable. Micro herbs are young plants that are harvested as seedlings that are young and immature. From planting these seeds, they are harvested within a few weeks.  Micro-herbs are commonly produced in indoor settings, and often as hydroponics.

High-end restaurants often incorporate micro-herbs with very young baby leaf lettuce to create a delicate mix. The result is a micro salad with beautiful little leaves that can be flavoured with a variety of herbs to match any dish.
