At Dirks Duckweed, we strive to harness as many cost-effective and sustainable methods as are available in our efforts toward scaling our operation. Our process utilizes several environmentally friendly inputs including solar power for our lights, pumps and post-harvest drier apparatus, water recycling systems for plant nutrient distribution, and a proprietary vermiculture recipe as our plant fertilizer.

ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY PACKAGING

Dirks Duckweed microgreens are shipped in packaging made from environmentally friendly Polylactic acid (PLA) containers. PLA is a synthetic biopolymer that can be fully biodegraded under home-composting conditions within about six months.
