Therefore, the part of the plant that is in direct contact with the soil is removed before packaging. We recommend rinsing the greens in water before serving, just as you would wash other salad greens. We make our own organic soil mix and compost the soil from the trays after harvesting the greens. We occasionally add washed sand and a biodynamic compost starter to the mix, but never any animal manure. Our soil is not sterilized, as that would destroy the beneficial bacterial life in the soil, which is the key to successful organic growing.
Healthy soil produces the most nutritious greens and contributes to their long shelf life.
We hope we've satisfied your curiosity. If you have any other questions, write to us again or visit our website. Sincerely, Rich and Kathy Gourmet Greens Hi Guys, I just wanted to drop you a line. I have got into juicing. We thought about it for some time as we have an inexpensive juicer and it was a lot of work to clean - we stopped juicing about as fast as we started.
