A Grow Microgreens

Microgreens are edible plants that are grown in small containers and harvested when they are still young, which makes them perfect for people who want to grow their own food indoors.

You can start this business by buying seeds and sprouting them at home or anywhere that's easy for you to access sunlight. You'll need a few different things, including a seed tray, soil, and water.

Growing microgreens is a great way to make money. You can grow them in small spaces, and they are very easy to sell. They can be sold at farmers' markets or through local restaurants. You can also grow them indoors, which is more convenient for you and your customers.

The average selling price for microgreens is $25 – 40 per pound. The yield from one ten-inch tray of microgreens is between 8 – 12 ounces per harvest (7-14 days), which means you can earn at least $12.5 – 18.8 dollars from each tray of microgreens.
