Harvest it!
Each batch of our freeze dried microgreens are carefully hand harvested only when at their perfect growth stage.
A triple wash process guided by the FDA HACCEP protocols assures exceptionally clean product. Solrig Farm uses zero animal products in our soil or fertilizing process.
Once cut, our microgreens are placed in the freeze dryer within one hour of harvest. Nutritional integrity is preserved during the freeze drying process. We keep processing temperatures below 90 degrees allowing our raw diet friends to enjoy.
Powder it!
Approximately 24 hours later, the freeze drying process is complete and gorgeous, green and colorful freeze dried microgreens emerge.
Packaging is done immediately to prevent rehydration of the dried microgreens. Broccoli Blast+ is hand ground into condiment sized particles that are excellent as smoothie additions and also simply sprinkled on your finished meal.
and packaged in special protective pouches that assures the greens free from environmental effects.
Why freeze drying works:
Freeze drying is the penultimate food processing procedure that has been scientifically proven to lock in the nutrition found in the microgreens. Solrig Farm uses state of the art freeze drying technology and uses a pharmaceutical grade instrument to carry out the process. The process follows 3 simple steps, each taking 8 hours to complete.
1) The microgreens are first exposed to subzero temperatures and quickly frozen.
2) A strong vacuum is pulled using a external pump. This is a crucial step and the one that assures the microgreen processing is happening without oxygen gas. Oxygen is highly destructive to antioxidants and diminishes the nutritional integrity of the microgreen.
3) Slight heating (less than 85 degrees) is activated within the evacuated chamber - this assists in moving the water molecules from the ice that formed in step 1 into the open space of the freeze dryer, to be pulled out of the system.
→ Small batch, single source inputs. Solrig produces all the microgreens that are used in making Broccoli Blast + and Sunflower Micro Mix. We never use any filler or green material from any other source. Our small batch, hand processed product provides the careful attention to quality and product integrity
→ Solrig microgreens use only NonGMO seeds and OMRI certified inputs. Our process is 100% vegan and we never use any inorganic fertilizer or pesticides. In addition, due to low temperature drying, Solrig freeze dried products are considered RAW for our friends on a raw only diet.
→ Our microgreens are processed to enter the freeze drying segment within one hour of harvesting. This production criteria is essential to preserving maximum concentrations of antioxidants. Microgreens rapidly degrade once cut so our processes assure speedy and effective harvesting and processing.
