“Warning: Once you grow your own sprouts, you will never look at a $7 clamshell of ‘baby greens’ the same way again.”

What’s Inside

Everything You Need. Nothing You Don’t.

A Mason jar, a handful of seeds, and two minutes a day. That’s the whole startup cost. Ivy Green and Certified Nursery Professional Kevin Mansoor walk you from your very first jar of alfalfa sprouts to a full countertop microgreens operation — without the intimidation, the jargon, or the anxiety spiral.

🌱 Sprouts in Days, Not Weeks
No soil. No dirt. No mess. Just a jar, some seeds, and Ivy’s ridiculously simple rinsing routine. From soaking to crunching in as little as 2–3 days.
💡 The Microgreens Upgrade
When you’re ready to graduate from jars to trays, Kevin walks you through the exact professional setup — grow lights, self-watering trays, and all — without the guesswork.
🛡️ The Safety Chapter They Won’t Tell You About
Warm, moist environments are great for sprouts — and for bacteria. Kevin gives you the straight-talk protocol that keeps your kitchen clean and your family safe, every single batch.
🍽️ Seed-to-Plate & Variety Matchmaking
Harvest timing, storage secrets, meal ideas, and a variety guide from mung beans to gourmet micro-herbs — so you know exactly what to grow and what to do with it.

“Sprouting is one of those rare things that is simultaneously very simple and genuinely impressive. In a few days, from a small handful of seeds and nothing more than water, you’ll have fresh food growing in your kitchen. Real, nutritious, homegrown food — no garden, no soil, no waiting for the right season. That never really gets old.”
