A vibrant lettuce mix featuring Butterhead, Green Leaf, and Red Sails offers a delightful combination of textures and flavours. Butterhead provides a soft, buttery texture and mild sweetness. Green Leaf adds a slightly crisp bite and a fresh, grassy flavour. Red Sails contributes a touch of bitterness and a beautiful reddish hue, enhancing both the visual appeal and taste. This blend is perfect for salads, sandwiches, or wraps, offering a nutritious and refreshing base for any meal. The variety of leaf shapes also makes it an attractive garnish.   

Our Lettuce Mix is organically grown. There is misinformation that hydroponic is better, but it is grown using chemical solutions and artificial lights. 

Soil-grown produce is often considered superior to that grown hydroponically due to several factors:

1. Nutrient Density: Soil naturally contains a diverse range of essential macro and micro-nutrients that plants need for optimal growth and development. 

2. Flavor and Aroma: The complex interactions between plant roots and soil microorganisms contribute to the unique flavour and aroma profiles of soil-grown produce. Hydroponic systems, lacking this interaction, may result in produce with a less intense or nuanced flavour.  

3. Natural Processes: Soil-grown plants are subject to natural cycles and environmental variations, which can strengthen their resilience and adaptability.
