LARGE PACKET

For pennies a day, you can have the freshest, most nutrition packed sprouts possible by growing your own at home. Our certified organic sprouting seed will ensure your success. Anyone who has purchased sprouts at the grocery store knows that quality can vary greatly.

Alfalfa sprouts are one of the most popular of all sprouting seeds. They are nutritious; high in protein, essential amino acids, digestive enzymes, vitamins, minerals, and (when exposed to light) chlorophyll. Alfalfa sprouts add lively flavor and texture to tossed salads and sandwiches. The culinary possibilities are limited only by your imagination!

There are several ways to grow sprouts; the easiest and least expensive is the jar method. All you need is a glass canning jar (quart or larger) and a lid. For complete instructions on how to grow sprouts using the jar method, see inside of packet.

If not properly disinfected, all seeds have the possibility of carrying E. coli bacteria or other foodborne pathogens. Please disinfect the seed prior to sprouting by soaking in a 2% bleach solution (1 tsp. bleach to 1 cup hot tap water) for 15 minutes. Rinse thoroughly.
