Before we delve into the story of Penn Grows, let’s understand why microgreens have been causing such a buzz in recent years. Microgreens are essentially young, edible plants harvested at an early growth stage, typically when they’ve just developed their first true leaves. These miniature greens pack a punch when it comes to both flavor and nutrition.

Nutritional Powerhouses: Despite their small size, microgreens are bursting with essential nutrients. They are rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Studies have shown that some microgreens can contain significantly higher concentrations of these nutrients than their mature counterparts.

Culinary Versatility: Microgreens offer a concentrated burst of flavors, ranging from mild and nutty to spicy and peppery. They have a tender and delicate texture, making them a versatile ingredient that can elevate the taste of salads, sandwiches, soups, and more.

Sustainability: Growing microgreens is environmentally friendly, requiring fewer resources like water and space than cultivating mature plants. This sustainability aligns with the growing trend of eco-conscious living.

The Penn Grows Story

Grown with Purpose. Shared with Love.

At Penn Grows, our journey started with a simple question:
“What if we could grow the freshest, most nourishing greens—not just for us, but for our dog?”

That question sprouted into something bigger.

What began in our home as a small batch of microgreens grown to support our pet’s health quickly became a daily ritual, a passion, and a purpose. We saw firsthand how these tiny greens—bursting with nutrients, flavor, and life—made a real difference. Not just for our furry friend, but for our family, our skin, and our community.

Today, Penn Grows is a growing ecosystem rooted in sustainability, wellness, and education. We grow pesticide-free microgreens in Trevose, PA, using eco-conscious methods that require less water, less space, and no harsh chemicals. Our microgreens aren’t just beautiful—they’re functional, healing, and full of vitality.

From this foundation, we’ve expanded into two branches of wellness:

• Beardie Greens, our nutrient-packed pet greens line
• Microglams, our skincare and body care line infused with the power of microgreens

Whether you’re feeding your body, caring for your skin, or treating your pets, we believe in products that are as fresh, functional, and clean as the food we grow.

We didn’t set out to start a business.
We set out to care better—for our dog, for our family, and for the planet.

Now, we’re here to grow with you.
