Seed to Table in Seven Days
Insight
Our target market—busy urban millennials—are used to instant results, but edible gardening is rarely instantaneous.
Response
Microgreens are about as close to instant gratification as possible. So we designed a foolproof microgreens kit that promised seed-to-table in just seven days. Fast-growing kits opened up business opportunities to sell different flavors, subscription refills, and a seasonal seed club.
