Micro herbs can also be referred to as Micro greens, these terms are interchangeable. Micro herbs are young seedlings that are harvested whilst the plants 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 hydroponics.

A new trend with some high-end restaurants is to mix some of these micro herbs in with very young baby leaf lettuce. The result is a micro salad with beautiful little leaves that can be flavoured with a variety of herbs to match any dish.
