“NATURE’S OASIS‐ Microgreens” 

       

 Microgreens are vegetable greens, harvested just after the cotyledon leaves have developed. They are used as a nutrition supplement, a visual enhancement, and a flavour and texture enhancement. Microgreens can add sweetness and spiciness to foods.

They provide necessary nutrients for the eyes, skins, bone development, healthy digestive system and also protect against inflammation, cancer, cardiovascular diseases, overly boosting the immune system.

Chefs use colourful microgreens to enhance the attractiveness and taste of their dishes with distinct delicate textures and unique flavors, such as sweet and spicy.

Activity‐ Students will plant and harvest microgreens in their kitchen garden and will keep 

a digital track of the process through pictures and use it in their power point 

presentation/small video (3‐4 minutes)  

Given below are the steps to grow microgreens in your kitchen garden:
