Mustard Microgreens Grown in Golden Colorado at our Urban Farm

Grown fresh in the foothills of Colorado, our mustard microgreens are harvested at peak potency to deliver a powerful nutritional boost. Because microgreens are harvested early — when the leaves are young and nutrient‑dense — they offer higher concentrations of vitamins, antioxidants and beneficial phytochemicals than many mature greens.

Rich in vibrant flavor and vivid green color, our mustard microgreens carry the peppery tang of the mustard plant while delivering clean, farm‑to‑table nutrition. Perfect for smoothies, salads, juices or as a powdered supplement, these microgreens bring concentrated wellness straight from our local greenhouse.

Key benefits

• Nutrient Rich – High in vitamins A, C and K, and essential minerals such as calcium, iron, magnesium and potassium.

• Antioxidant Powerhouse – Loaded with phenolic compounds, carotenoids and other antioxidants that help protect cells from oxidative stress.

• Supports Detox & Cellular Health – Belonging to the Brassicaceae family (mustards, kale, broccoli), these microgreens contain glucosinolates — sulfur‑containing compounds that convert into isothiocyanates, which help support detoxification pathways in the body.

• Bone & Cardiovascular Support – With significant vitamin K content (key for bone mineralization and blood‑health) and a nutrient profile that supports healthy circulation and metabolism.

• Locally Grown & Fresh – Grown in Colorado, harvested quickly, minimal travel, maximal freshness and potency.

Scientific‑Study Highlights & Supporting Evidence

Here are several peer‑reviewed studies and reviews that support the nutritional and functional benefits of mustard microgreens and microgreens in general:

• A comprehensive review on microgreens of the Brassicaceae family notes that mustard microgreens show “elevated levels of specific phytochemicals such as β‑carotene, lycopene, phenolic acids and flavonoids compared to their mature versions.” OUP Academic+1

• In one study, mustard microgreens (Brassica juncea) grown under varying light conditions had increased antioxidant content (total phenolic compounds) when grown under higher photosynthetic photon flux densities. PubMed

• A research article found that mustard (and coriander) microgreens were rich in vitamin C, β‑carotene, and minerals such as iron, calcium and phosphorus — and they possessed strong antioxidant and antimicrobial properties compared to baby or mature greens. Food and Nutrition Journal

• In “Optimal Brassicaceae family microgreens from a phytochemical and sensory perspective”, red mustard had among the highest glucosinolate content of the group studied, supporting the functional benefits of this plant family. PubMed

• Additional work on mustard microgreens’ phytochemical composition found total soluble polyphenols and carotenoids at meaningful levels: e.g., in one study carotenoids in mustard microgreens were recorded at ~110 µg/g fresh weight. MDPI

• A study optimizing growth media for Brassicaceae microgreens indicated microgreens generally provide high minerals and suggested possible cardiovascular and metabolic health benefits in part thanks to microgreen consumption. Horticulture Journal+1

Why This Matters For Your Supplement

• Since you harvest at an early microgreen stage, you’re capturing the plant when nutrient and phytonutrient concentrations are high (vs. mature plants).

• The unique “mustard” variety offers a sharper flavor and the metabolic/“detox” support profile associated with Brassicaceae microgreens (via glucosinolates → isothiocyanates).

• Local Colorado cultivation adds freshness, shorter supply chain, and a marketing angle of “grown in Golden, Colorado” which helps differentiate.

• The combination of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and phytonutrients positions your product as a premium microgreen supplement with multi‑system benefits: immune, detox, bone, cardiovascular, etc.
