ey honed in on microgreens – "baby versions" of larger,
mature vegetables – and got to work developing a whopping
eight different varieties.
"ey taste just like the bigger version, and they are
extremely easy to use," Keith said. "e flavor profile you get
is fantastic."
Instead of slicing and dicing large vegetables, for example,
customers can toss a handful of microgreen sprouts on
sandwiches, into soups, and throughout an endless variety
of their favorite dishes.
"Since they're so new, a lot of people haven't tried them,"
Keith explained. "e thing we hear the most is that
people just can't believe the flavor they get. You watch
their faces when the try them and they just go, 'Wow!
is is amazing!'"
Montana Fresh currently produces eight varieties of
microgreens – traditional radish, purple radish, purple stem
radish, sunflower, wasabi cabbage, basic salad mix, spicy
salad mix, and peas – which are available in Great Falls
at 2Js and Pizazz.
e crew also handles some direct-to-consumer sales for
local customers, and the Nourish food truck uses Montana
Fresh microgreens in many of its dishes.
"We're really just geing rolling," Keith said, noting that
they hope to branch out to other retailers and communities
in the near future.
