About Nourishing Earth Urban Farm
-
Located in Robbinsville, NJ, Nourishing Earth Farm is owned and operated by Marietta Gordon, who began growing microgreens as a quick and easy way to get extra veggies into her family’s meals.
Marietta started by selling to family and friends, then at the local Robbinsville farmers market, where she learned what eco-friendly packaging worked best to keep her greens fresh. Everyone loved how her microgreens stayed fresh for a week or longer in the fridge, longer than any store bought!
Marietta loved providing an easy way for her community to access delicious, nutrient-rich food. In a world where we are all struggling to eat healthier she decided that growing to order and delivering directly to the consumer was the best way to set up her farm. This process ensured maximally fresh produce for her customers with zero food waste.
As an avid gardener in the Garden State, Marietta knows that soil health is extremely important when it comes to healthy nutrient dense crops.
“I grow my microgreens in soil instead of just coco coir or on grow mats. The same goes for the vegetables and salad greens I grow outside in the warmer months. Soil health is very important for these plants to be as nutritious and delicious as possible.”
“How we grow is just as important as what we grow.”
She enlists the help of her three year old son to help care for the greens and deliver locally; so if you are in Mercer County New Jersey, pre-order your microgreens today!
