Microgreens are baby versions of full-grown vegetables, grains and herbs - but they contain as much flavor and even more nutrition, plus, they're easy and quick to grow in even the smallest space.

I've always gardened everywhere I go, but I found special challenges at 7,000 feet in the high mountain desert of New Mexico. Yes, we have plenty of sunshine, but also howling winds, extreme drought, spectacular temperature swings, and a short growing season ... good grief!

So I was thrilled to discover that growing your own microgreens is the easiest way ever to enjoy tasty, fresh organic greens year round. And what could be more local than your own windowsill or kitchen counter?

Anyone - seriously, anyone - can grow microgreens. They will flourish in sunshine or artificial light, they don't need fertilizer or special "kid glove" treatment, and they're ready to harvest in as little as a week.

I opened my "Maggie's Microgreens" shop to share my love of microgreens with you.

~ I source and personally test-grow every seed type I offer, using only certified organic non-GMO seeds grown specifically for microgreens.

~ I assemble my DIY microgreens kits using my own specially-blended organic soil mix.

~ I re-purpose vintage and modern china pieces for a unique countertop garden.

~ I send clear, complete growing instructions with every purchase, and I am happy to answer any questions you might have, and offer advice for a great harvest.

I hope my organic microgreens will open a new "garden path" for you as they have for me!
