Sweet Leaf Organics

I want to open this post up by saying how amazing your support has been over the last 2.5 years. I always knew this business was going to be successful, but the endless support and love is something I never imagined. I am beyond grateful for you all.

I do want to get straight to the main points of this post to limit any confusion. This weekend will be the last round of Wheatgrass Juice and Microgreens deliveries for the time being.

Due to some issues with our current farm location, Sweet Leaf Organics will be pausing the majority of our business as we consolidate our grow operation to about a third (or less) of our current production capabilities.

We will be significantly limiting our business volume during this time, but will accept advance orders and will grow those custom requested items.

Over these last 2 years, you have all watched this business grow and thrive within our local community. Some of you have been here from the start, others have just joined. I want to be clear when I say that it has been an absolute pleasure serving you and I'm so proud of you all for adding these foods into your diet every week.

When I started this farm, I wanted to impact peoples' lives by growing food, but I did not anticipate the amount of personal and professional growth that has come from running a business every day, watching my community enjoy some of the healthiest foods on the planet and connecting with you all on a personal level.

Starting from farmers markets, doing my own deliveries each week and building relationships with my customers are moments that really changed the way this business runs. As the business has grown, so has the support from my customers and there are no words to describe how that has impacted my life.

Over the last 2.5 years, I have worked every day (literally) in order to provide high-quality products to all of my customers and I would not change any of it. I want to personally express how very sorry I am for the inconvenience and I know how much you look forward to and rely on these foods each week. I hope to grow for you on the same scale or greater again in the future once we are back to normal business volume.

Thank you all very much.

5 Impressive Benefits of Wheatgrass Juice 👇

In case you’re wondering if wheat and wheatgrass are the same thing, then you should know that they are as opposite as chalk and cheese.

Wheatgrass belongs to the family of Triticum Aestivum plant, an agropyre and is loaded with nutrients.

This superfood provides you with over 100 nutrients including all vitamins A, C, E, K and a complete range of B complex vitamins. It is also power-packed with 17 essential amino acids and one of the best sources of chlorophyll. It is a natural blood purifier.

Wheatgrass is an incredible source of a huge array of antioxidants including glutathione and vitamin C that combat detrimental free radicals, prevent oxidative stress and cell damage. Besides these, imbued with chlorophyll and vitamins, wheatgrass juice is highly valuable in averting the risk of heart disease, cancer, arthritis and neurodegenerative diseases.
