Silly Greens comes with a touch of salt, and pepper.
We’re the grow-your-own micro sized greens club. Yes that club exists. We make the growing of very perishable greens easy with live grow boxes. Organically growing out of the box without soil – it’s Post Organic tiddle toddle.
Little but often
Not much, but lots of not much
Year-round they grow
Grow them in all seasons – indoors
Good for the garnish
Trim the greens over the plate
Not heard of Microgreens? Neither had we. It’s the domain of urban farming and we’re bringing it household.
Problem these greens have is they like to perish fast. As speed is of the essence, live boxes are handy way to waste less.

Growing beats buying fresh
GET IT FRESH AND VARIED
Live trays give you the extra time that shop bought micros don’t. We eat less than 1% of available plant foods, growing microgreens (which are normal herbs or vegetables just picked young) opens up a-lot of choice and that’s what we strive for.
DON’T BRING YOUR CLUBS
You don’t need any tools – this form of growing isn’t that onerous. Just turn up and play. We stock up on seed, wash and sow it, the parts that become tiresome after a little while. Microgreens can only grow for so long in the space they have, so sucessional sowing is the answer to keep the crops coming.
IF IT GROWS – GROW IT
Growing the small stuff doesn’t need so much. If it can, and it can, then we think it should be done. Saves Farming it and cuts the supply chain. Posting them early is a low carbon method to fresh looking plate. You can take our packs one stage further, by repotting the greens on with more space to grow.

What People Are Saying
I have an allotment and love growing my own food. I wanted to try growing micro greens in my flat

It’s a really brilliant way to try a lot of different greens
– Mary
Super fresh greens really appeals to me – I wanted to be able to cut fresh, rather than have something in a soggy bag.
