OUR STORY

Kalipa - What language is that?

My father, a 40+ year expert in high maintenance turf, turned his focus to more renewable, sustainable, and healthier agriculture practices. His entire career has been the expert maintenance of monoculture turfs - golf courses and polo fields. It wasn't shocking that someone who kept Ultra Dwarf Bermuda Grass at an 1/8 of an inch in height would be attracted to the idea of microgreens.

So he took all of his years and experience in the field growing little grasses and applied them to growing little greens. No shock to anyone, he was good at it.

The shock came when he realized that his grandchildren loved them so much that they would eat them by the handful!

So it only made sense to name it after the grands: Kaelin, Liam, and Parker - Kalipa.

They Have The Exact Same Amount of Nutrients

By eating microgreens you could be increasing your nutritional intake by 3 to 10 times.

Microgreens are known to be significantly more nutrient-dense than their mature counterparts. A 2012 study published in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry found that microgreens contain up to 40 times more vital nutrients like vitamins C, E, and K than their mature plant versions.

Research has shown that microgreens can contain higher concentrations of antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals compared to their fully-grown counterparts. This makes them a potent addition to any healthy diet.

Numerous studies have linked the consumption of microgreens to improved cardiovascular health. A 2013 study published in the Journal of Functional Foods found that eating red cabbage microgreens helped reduce cholesterol levels and blood pressure in participants.

The high concentration of beneficial plant compounds like polyphenols in microgreens has been shown to have a positive impact on heart health by reducing inflammation and improving blood vessel function.

Microgreens are packed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that play a crucial role in supporting a healthy immune system. A 2015 study published in the Journal of the American College of Nutrition found that consuming microgreens daily helped increase the production of natural killer cells, which are essential for fighting off infections and diseases.

The high levels of vitamin C, vitamin E, and carotenoids in microgreens have been linked to improved immune function and reduced risk of chronic illnesses.

The fiber and beneficial plant compounds found in microgreens can have a positive impact on gut health. A 2017 study published in the Journal of Functional Foods found that eating microgreens helped increase the diversity of gut bacteria, which is essential for maintaining a healthy digestive system.

Rigorous in the field scientific studies have proven time and time again... they are yummy

The prebiotic properties of microgreens can also help support the growth of beneficial gut bacteria, leading to improved nutrient absorption and reduced risk of gastrointestinal issues.
