What Are Microgreens?
Microgreens are young vegetables harvested at their peak flavor and tenderness.
They’re small in size but packed with nutrients — often containing up to 40x more vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants than mature vegetables.
Eating microgreens helps support a strong immune system, boosts energy levels, and reduces inflammation, all while adding fresh, vibrant flavor to your meals. They’re incredibly easy to use — just toss them into salads, sandwiches, smoothies, or on top of any dish.
If you want a simple, delicious way to eat healthier, feel better, and enjoy chef-quality greens at home — microgreens are the answer.
Microgreens are one of the most versatile and flavor-packed foods you can keep in your kitchen. Their vibrant colors, fresh taste, and concentrated nutrients make them the perfect finishing touch — or even the star of the plate.
Sprinkle them over salads for a fresh crunch, layer them into sandwiches and wraps, toss them into smoothies, or use them to garnish soups, omelets, and pastas. With so many textures and flavors — from mild and nutty to bold and spicy — there’s a microgreen for every dish.
Once you start adding them to your meals, you’ll realize the possibilities are endless. That’s why we’ve put together a free Microgreens Recipe Book filled with our favorite easy, delicious ideas to help you get started.

Where a Love of Growing Meets a Love of Food
Chef & Seed grew from two things that have been part of our lives for years: Andy’s love of growing and Chef Dawn’s life as a chef.
Andy has always loved growing things and working with his hands. There’s something about putting a seed in the soil, caring for it, and watching it become something useful and beautiful that has always brought him joy. Microgreens gave him a way to turn that love of growing into something he could share with others.
Chef Dawn brings the other half of Chef & Seed. After years as a chef, she knows the difference a truly fresh ingredient can make. From a chef’s perspective, microgreens are exciting — beautiful color, incredible freshness, interesting textures, and flavors that can completely change a dish.
That’s how Chef & Seed came to be.
One of us starts with the seed.
The other sees what it can become on the plate.
And somewhere along the way, we realized this little business represented something more.
Our Credo
Play in the dirt.
Grow with faith.
Harvest with love.
Find peace.
Those words capture what we want Chef & Seed to be.
We grow locally in Mt. Juliet, Tennessee, with care for what we produce and the people who will ultimately enjoy it. We want to provide our community with microgreens that are exceptionally fresh, full of flavor, and grown with intention.
Whether they end up in a chef’s kitchen, at a neighborhood restaurant, or on a family’s dinner table, we want people to know there are real hands and a real story behind what we grow.
Chef Curated. Grown with Purpose.
That’s Chef & Seed!
OUR WHY
Play in the Dirt · Grow with Faith · Harvest with Love · Find Peace
