Corinne Hansch: Microgreens and Shoots, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

The first complete guide to planting, growing, harvesting, packing and selling microgreens for the market farmer.

Organic farmer and activist Corinne Hansch established herself in Upstate New York's competitive farmers market scene by cultivating high-quality, nutrient-dense microgreens---a cornerstone of her operation to this day. In Microgreens and Shoots, Hansch profiles the most profitable microgreens in her operation, including arugula, basil, cilantro, and pea shoots, and offers her hard-earned advice for tailoring one's operation to their unique strengths and goals. From seed selection to growing spaces to overcoming pests and disease to recordkeeping and business management,
this is the definitive guide to producing microgreens.

With their short seed-to-harvest timeframe, limited space and light requirements, low maintenance needs, and high yield potential, microgreens and shoots are a worthwhile enterprise for small, diversified farming operations---whose success is the foundation of healthy, regenerative communities and economies.
