While it’s more convenient to pick up a phone and order food to your house than grocery shopping and cooking up a meal, it’s a lot healthier to cook at home, and you know exactly what you’re eating. But what if you had an appliance that automatically cooks healthy food for you?
Meet tablefarm! The tabletop garden that grows microgreens for you. Tablefarm offers a no-effort solution to eating healthy. Microgreens fall in the ‘eating healthy’ category as they are packed with nutrients.
What are microgreens anyway? They are vegetables and herbs harvested just as they develop their first leaves in around 7 to 10 days. They are incredibly easy and quick to grow, but you won’t have to worry about that because tablefarm does it for you. Microgreens like radish, red cabbage, and cilantro contain 10 to 40 times more vitamins and minerals in their tiny leaves and stems than their mature counterparts.
Tablefarm is designed to take care of every aspect of the plant’s growth cycle. It features a water-reservoir that automatically waters your plants and an LED panel that mimics sunlight to promote photosynthesis. Fill the device with water (once a week), place a set of ‘seed pads’ on top of the water reservoir, plug it in, and tablefarm will take care of the rest, giving you nutrient-packed microgreens in under a week!
The seeds are organic, professional-grade, and pesticide-free, while the seed pads are 100% biodegradable – produced solely from virgin, sustainably-sourced raw materials. The entire system is dirt and mess-free since there’s no soil involved. As a bonus, a tablefarm is as small as a fruit-basket, allowing you to fit it on any tabletop counter, and since it has its own light, it doesn’t even need to be near a window.
Tablefarm comes in various colors including, rose, mint, beige, and black, and there are up to 6 different seed-pads to choose from with a 95% guaranteed sprout-rate. Once your microgreens are fully grown, you can prune them every couple of days and either use them as a garnish for your food or eat handfuls when you want a healthy snack.
Indoor gardening is a growing trend in areas where yard or patio spaces are insufficient. Lately, creators have developed some innovative indoor gardening devices that make gardening effortless including, Chaozhi Lin’s self-sustaining compost systems that double as planters – KAGURA and the Sustainable Family Farm.
