How we grow

Better greens begin before the first seed is sown.

Known seed and media lots, water from a Santa Fe company, a dedicated indoor grow room, and crop-level records connect each harvest from seed to package.

What stands behind every tray

01

Water from a Santa Fe company

We use The Water Man's Premium water. It is purified by reverse osmosis, remineralized with calcium, potassium, and magnesium, then ozonated before bottling. Crops are also watered with a very dilute ocean-mineral solution (Ocean Magic) every other watering, adding broad trace minerals to every crop.

02

A medium that holds water and leaves room for air

PRO-MIX MPO combines peat and coir for moisture retention with perlite for air space around the root zone.

03

No pesticides applied

Microgreens are grown indoors in a dedicated room. Santa Fe Greens does not apply pesticides to them.

04

Traceable from seed to package

Seed and media lots, sowing dates, shelf position, harvest results, and packing details stay connected through a crop record and finished-product lot code.

Vertical growing

More growing surface in the same room.

Two vertical racks provide six lit growing levels each. LED shelf lighting supplies consistent light throughout the year, without depending on seasonal daylight.

48 lit tray positions
66+ square feet of crop surface
12 growing levels across two racks

The details

Exactly what goes into the process

What exactly is PRO-MIX MPO?

It is the soilless medium that fills the tray: 60–70% sphagnum peat moss with coir, perlite, calcitic limestone, a wetting agent, mycorrhizae, and a starter fertilizer charge.

Is additional fertilizer used?

Yes. GAIA GREEN All Purpose 4-4-4 is mixed into the growing medium for every crop, on top of PRO-MIX MPO’s starter fertilizer charge.

How are trays and lighting used?

Crops grow in durable, BPA-free, food-safe polypropylene trays that are cleaned and reused. LED lighting gives each shelf consistent light throughout the year and stacks several growing levels in the same floor space.

What is recorded for each crop?

The seed lot, media lot, actual sowing amount, tray format, dates, shelf position, environment observations, water, saleable yield, and crop defects are recorded. Packed products receive a lot code that links them back to those records.
