Cut today.
Not last week.
Most salad you can buy was harvested a week or more before you see it, then trucked, chilled, packed and shelved. By the time it reaches your fridge it is running on whatever it has left.
Ours is cut for your order in Perthshire and goes out the same day — within a few hours if you are local. It never sits in a warehouse, because we never grow anything speculatively. That is the entire reason a punnet from us holds for eight to ten days rather than wilting by Thursday.
Scatter, don't cook.
Five microgreens,
each doing a job.
Our core range, and the same five that go into Big Shot. All grown by us in Perthshire, indoors, year-round and pesticide free. They are together because they concentrate different things — and because peppery, sweet and nutty in one punnet is more interesting than any of them alone.
From tray to table,
usually inside a day.
The whole journey, from your order landing to the punnet going in your fridge.
Why microgreens, and not just more salad?
Before you
order.
How long will they actually last?
Eight to ten days in the fridge, sealed in the punnet. That surprises people, and the reason is simple: none of that shelf life gets used up before you receive them. They are cut for your order and go out the same day, rather than travelling through a packhouse and a distribution centre first. You get the days a supermarket has already spent.
How quickly do they reach me?
Typically within 24 hours of being cut, and often just a few hours if you are local to us in Perthshire. Posted orders are packed into insulated chilled packaging straight after harvest and sent the same day, so they stay cold the whole way.
Do I need to wash them?
We recommend a quick rinse before use, as you would with any fresh produce. In all honesty, we tend to eat them straight from the punnet — they are grown indoors, off the ground, with no pesticides and no soil splash. Your call.
What do I actually do with them?
Treat them as a topping rather than an ingredient. On eggs, avocado toast, soup, dhal, a jacket potato, in a sandwich, over a curry once it is plated. They want to go on at the end, not into the pan — heat degrades the compounds you bought them for.
There is no technique to learn here. If you can scatter, you can use microgreens.
What's in the Fusion Mix?
The same five microgreens that go into Big Shot — broccoli, red cabbage, rambo radish, pea and sunflower. They are our core range, chosen because they concentrate different things and taste good together: peppery from the radish, sweet from the pea, nutty from the sunflower.
Is the punnet recyclable?
Yes — it is rPET, which is recycled plastic and recyclable again. We would rather not use plastic at all, and we keep looking, but nothing we have tested yet protects a living leaf in transit the way this does. When something better exists we will move to it.
What if I'm away when they arrive?
If you subscribe, pause it — any time, no minimum, no fee. Fresh produce sitting on a doorstep for a week helps nobody. If it is a one-off order, drop us a message before we cut and we will move it to the following week.
