About MicrogreensLA
Farmer Joe Terry with John Kohler in Torrance, California — pioneer of the urban microgreens and sustainable farming movement
Welcome to the forefront of a green revolution. I'm Farmer Joe Terry, founder of MicrogreensLA. We aren't just growing plants — we are cultivating a zero-waste urban farming movement that transforms how communities access hyper-fresh, nutrient-dense food.
Inspired by educators like John Kohler, who championed home growing, MicrogreensLA is developing a local farm ecosystem around high-density microgreens, Italian Piennolo del Vesuvio heirloom tomatoes, and two planned human-food powders: freeze-dried Wolffia powder with B12 verification pending and freeze-dried broccoli sprout powder with active myrosinase and glucoraphanin. Wolffia feed remains a separate initial track. Finished-product evidence must support all B12, broccoli-constituent, and hydration claims before release; we do not make disease-treatment claims.
Operating through a West Coast hub-and-spoke production network connecting Seattle, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and San Diego, MicrogreensLA guarantees a 72-hour harvest-to-doorstep SLA for fresh harvests while maintaining an 80% lower carbon footprint than traditional industrial agriculture.
Distribution vision
From Finley to approved community pickup points
GreenDrop is the proposed distribution layer between MGLA production and future qualified neighborhood or business hosts. It is being introduced as a planning model, not represented as an active regional network.

Sunflower, Pea Shoots, Radish, Amaranth & Broccoli
Cultivated in indoor vertical racks under optimal LED light spectra. Rich in vitamins C, E, and K with zero pesticide exposure.
Key Operational Advantages
- ✓Delivered within 72 hours of harvest
- ✓Concentrated micronutrient density
- ✓Year-round continuous harvest cycles
- ✓Broccoli sprouts for validated freeze-dried powder
Circular Value Flow
Nutrient-Dense Microgreens
Up to 40x higher nutrient density than mature greens. Harvested to order within 72 hours.
Piennolo del Vesuvio Tomatoes
Authentic Italian heirloom cherry tomatoes with intense flavor, sold fresh or on traditional hanging vines.
Freeze-Dried Broccoli Sprout Powder with Active Myrosinase and Glucoraphanin
Planned powder with active myrosinase and glucoraphanin. No specific sulforaphane amount or dose will be advertised without finished-product testing.
Freeze-Dried Wolffia Human-Food Powder
Planned human-food powder with B12 verification pending. No B12 amount or nutrition claim will be advertised without finished-product testing.
Wolffia Feed Powder
A planned livestock-feed powder, developed alongside broccoli sprout powder and evaluated with qualified feed and animal-nutrition partners.
