ABOUT US
Cleveland Fresh is an Urban Agriculture operation that focuses on REconnecting people BACK to nature through the growing process of microgreens. Microgreens are baby vegetable greens and herbs that grow indoors in a controlled environment within 5-20 days depending on the crop. This stage of plant life is small but mighty as research shows that they are packed with 30 to 60x more nutrition than its adult size. Cleveland Fresh’s mission is to increase food access while decreasing food deserts in Cleveland, Ohio. Since 2018 Cleveland Fresh has planted many seeds in different spaces in order to add as a resource to five Organizations, four Public Schools, two Private Schools, one University, three Community Colleges, two Libraries, and 15 Entrepreneurs. Our business is currently focusing on growing and distributing microgreens to/at eight restaurants,four private chefs, five CSA’s and two Farmers Markets.
