Good Life Growing

Winter farming nutrient dense microgreens = "Easy like Sunday morning"

Hey friends, its been a while! Since March 2020 (when the world changed), we've been constantly pivoting and shifting our operations to adapt to the ever changing times in order to survive as an organization. With that, a lot has changed and a lot has stayed the same.

New developments are we have achieved the highest level of food safety, SQF (Safe Quality Foods) Certification, placing us at the highest tier of food safety and traceability, on par with international food corporations. Also, our US Dept of Labor Apprenticeship Program to train Grow Technicians for certification was recognized as a leading training program due to its high completion rate and job attainment. Combined, these efforts have put Good Life back into the fold as a sustainable urban farming company that supplies hyper local veggies in our region, on top of taking our products nationwide (i.e., we can afford to stay in business, hooray!)

Aside from that, we're still doing the same old Good Life activities as we relaunched our youth and community gardening programs. Thanks so much to the residents of The Ville who got us out of our lonely funk and breathed new life back into our Evans Farm, as well as the spirits of our founders who are still going through PTSD from the chaos Covid 19 brought to the St. Louis urban farming community.

Locally produced Romaine lettuce with some TLC from the Good Life crew available year round at the Hamilton Hospitality Group establishments (PW Pizza, Vin de Set, 1111 Mississippi, Moulin, Hamilton Steakhouse). Check them out for some of the best food in the STL region and that supports hyper-local farming, cheers!

We dont just grow plants, we teach up and coming youth farmers to do it too in an effort to inspire future generations to get in on the local, sustainable, food movement.

Many thanks to our friends at Fiddlehead Fern Café for their ongoing support of local foods. You can catch our nutrient dense, highly delicious microgreens on their menu daily. Cheers!
