Microgreens and the planet — urban agriculture, sustainable packaging, low-footprint food production and how tiny greens support a greener future.

Part two of our urban agriculture series: what happens after the harvest — post-harvest handling, storage, light treatments, and the "superfood" claim we removed.

Why a review paper frames microgreens as urban horticulture's future — cities, hidden hunger, short cycles — and the chronic-disease claim we corrected here.

What microgreens actually cost in water, energy and waste — and why the figures this page used to quote for that did not hold up.
