Can't Find Soil Grown Wheatgrass

A few days ago we received an inquiry from a wheatgrass user in Manhattan:

"I live in NYC and am trying to find wheatgrass sold in soil/ in a tray. I understand you don't offer this, but do you know of anyone who does? Thank you for your help!"

There is a grower that supplies soil grown wheatgrass to some stores in NYC, but this grower is not certified organic. Who knows where they get their soil from? I was in New York City last winter and went into a Jamba Juice Store. When I saw wheatgrass juice listed on their menu I thought, great - I'll have a shot. But when I saw the tray of wheatgrass I changed my mind. It was short, falling over, and yellow. I asked to see it up close. There was no soil for the roots to obtain nutrients and obviously it had not even been watered. I feel bad for anyone who reads about the great benefits of drinking wheatgrass juice, tries it in a store like this, and thinks this is what wheatgrass is.

Pilates Studio Likes Our Wheatgrass

For a few weeks now we have been sending our certified organic fresh wheatgrass to a Pilates Studio. They order by email and we just today received this compliment:

"We are a new account with you, and I wanted to let you know how happy we are with your Wheatgrass! Thank you so much. It is the freshest tasting wheatgrass ever, and we (and our clients) are loving it!"

Unlike many wheatgrass growers we grow our wheatgrass the old fashioned way. It is grown with composted soil the way I learned to do it from Ann Wigmore back in the early seventies at the Hippocrates Health Institute in Boston, MA.
