Microgreens often contain 40 times the nutrients of their full-grown equivalents, if you've never tried locally grown microgreens before, this is where to start. Lightfoot's Farm harvests in small batches, three times a week, from their vertical farm on the edge of the national park - and what arrives on your doorstep is as fresh as it gets without growing it yourself. Which, as it happens, you can also do with their help. You order, they deliver. It couldn't be simpler. Cut fresh after your order is placed, your microgreens arrive on the Tuesday or Friday following your purchase. For first-time buyers, Lightfoot's recommend starting with the three mixes - mild, spicy and complete - containing over 15 varieties across three pots. For those who want to grow their own, Lightfoot's offers two options: the Supported Grower subscription — a grow-at-home kit with monthly delivery of seed, soil and grow mats plus farm support; or the standalone Microgreen Grow Kit with refills available as a subscription. For Chefs & Wholesale Buyers: The same greens going into professional kitchens across the region are available to order directly. Gizzi Erskine says: "I pride myself on sourcing the best of the best British produce. Microgreens have been hard to come by, but Lightfoot's Farm greens are brilliantly punchy in flavour while still being delicate in size." Andrew Du Bourg, Head Chef at The Elderflower, Lymington says: "Working with a company that shares the same values as us makes my life that much easier. Their products are the best I've come by." Lightfoot's understands that chefs and their teams are busy and under pressure, and the aim is to make the service as simple as possible. Quality control is exceptional - grown by a small team who care deeply about what they produce - and if there are ever problems, the farm wants to hear and will take concrete steps to respond. The farm harvests three times a week and delivers on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays, depending on location. Standing orders keep things simple and work for everybody, but the farm is equally comfortable handling ad hoc orders that come in by WhatsApp. Beyond what is listed in the online shop, there is a wider range of varieties available to wholesale customers — call to discuss what else is growing. The farm will arrange to visit with samples to see and try, or chefs are very welcome to visit the farm themselves.
