Micro-Greens and Shoots | April Harvest of the Month

โ€œShootsโ€ and โ€œmicro-greensโ€ are the first growth of young and tender plants harvested before reaching full maturity. They are generally 2-6 inches long and have a few baby leaves and maybe a budding flower. They taste like their mature counterpart- but have a very delicate texture and crunch. Micro-greens and shoots are eaten raw, sauteed, or used as a garnish on dishes served hot or cold. Learn all about little greens in season now on the Adirondack Almanack.

COVID-19 Information

During this challenging and uncertain time, many Adirondack food producers are responding in innovative ways to make sure their larger community stays fed and safe. Browse local delivery and curbside pick-up options and more COVID-19 resources and information.

Benefits of Buying Local

Studies show that local foods can have a positive impact on local economic activity by substituting imports and supporting local processing. Learn more about why you should buy local.

HOW-TUESDAY | Eat more winter greens!

Micro-greens and shoots are a very popular crop to grow in the Adirondack region because they are relatively easy to grow in covered spaces and hoop houses early in the season before the ground has thawed. 

Many different edible vegetables and legumes can be grown as a micro-green or shoot, like radish, broccoli, sunflower, beets, cabbage, peas, cilantro, basil, and dill. While a pea plant can take about 60 days to reach maturity, a pea shoot can be harvested in just two to four weeks. 

Little greens add a LOT of nutrition, flavor, and texture to your weekly meal plan! Add micro-greens or shoots to the top of basically any hot or cold dish, like soup, salad, sandwiches, pasta, etc. 

Link in bio to read more about the history of cultivating little greens.

Your Weekly Local Food Fact ๐Ÿฃ Why are eggs different colors? 

The color of an eggshell is determined by the breed of chicken that laid it. As an egg travels through the chicken's oviduct, the shell is being created and begins white. This takes approximately 26 hours. Different breed chickens will release different pigments in their oviduct during this phase, which are absorbed by the forming eggshell, thus creating different colored eggshells. There is no difference in flavor or nutrition between different colored eggs.

You can buy eggs at almost any local-food retailer or market. Visit adirondackharvest.com to find eggs of every color!
