Big Flavour
Smaller crops mean the flavour is more concentrated than in larger plants. Just three greens give fresh pickings for a week.
Grow Where You Cook
We sow the crops so they’re ready to grow. Just take them out of the box, put them on your counter, and water them.
Low Impact
Grow your own where you need it, skipping pesticides and supply chains.
How it Works
Herbs by post explained in 30 seconds.
Schedule a box
Choose how often you’d like a box
Remove top
Just the lid comes off, the rest is ready
The seeds are sown
Sown thickly on mats without soil
Let them grow
They can grow happily in the kitchen
We post them out
Once germinated we select three greens for the box
Pick ’em small
Once a few inches tall they’re ready to eat
Every week
This means consistent greens for picking so you’ll always have something to throw on your plate.
Every 2 weeks
It takes over a week to crop a box. So this gives you greens, for pretty much most of the time.
Every 4 weeks
A box every 4 weeks. You’ll grow one, then they’ll be a little gap before you grow the next one. It’s not quite Alan Titchmarsh but you’re on your way.
Every 6 weeks
Have a little graze once in awhile with a box every 6 weeks.
3 Reasons to Get Your Greens Delivered
1. EAT MORE DIVERSE FOODS
The industrial farming industry dictates what we eat – and increasingly, our choices are limited: collectively, we eat less than 1% of available plant foods. Our crops are diverse, which is good for the planet. It also means you’ll discover new greens you can’t find in shop.
2. STAY FRESH
Herbs are one of the most wasted ingredients, second only to bananas. Our greens last way longer than produce from the shop, giving you more opportunity to use them.
3. BE PART OF SOMETHING
Faced with today’s food climate, growing your own greens feels more radical than ever. The movement doesn’t have to stop there, though. We see potential way beyond home-grown greens, which is why we put 4p aside from each box sold to drive projects that directly involve Silly Greens growers.
