Our Story



MicroGreensNH is a unique microgreen grower and food collective located in the Lakes Regions of New Hampshire and managed by Grower "JT" (Jeff) Thayer.  As an advocation, he started in the 80's growing sprouts and seedling trees as part of a sustainable bonsai operation.  During the 90's his interest moved to growing in integrated hydroponic systems of microgreens and tilapia fish in a CSA model.  He says:  "Growing from organic, non-GMO seed is a passion, particularly where unique vertical use of space is unitlized."  After 20  years as an advocation,  JT decided to turn the passion of organic growing by specializing in microgreens using techniques he has studied from Peter Tomkins' "The Secret Life of Plants", "Secrets of the Soil", Masanobu Fukuoka"s "The One Straw Revolution", Viktor Shauberger's "Living Waters" and the "Secret Teachings of Plants" by Stephen Harrod Buhner.  These books are our bibles for MicroGreensNH.  "They will change your point of view on virtually every plant which grows and uses water.  I've done so much research and experimentation, I feel like a MicroGreens shaman of sorts. " 


"Plants respond incredibly to sound so we play harmonic frequencies to our plants while they are growing.  We also vortex spin our well water to optimize structuring of the water and encourage a greatly stress reduced environment. Kelp is our only fertilizer providing over 10 key micro minerals which are bioavailable to the roots of our MicroGreens.  We use soil which is blended with worm castings and certified as organic.  Our MicroGreens are now grown in more than 9 varieties blended into Micro Asian, Micro Rainbow and Micro White Mountain mixes.
