    I still feel the best trays are from “On the Grow, been using them for 9 months now and they still look brand new.

    Hi there, I purchased quite a few seeds and supplies from you for microgreens. I need some sturdy trays WITH holes. I will be growing for our flock of 10 chickens and for our family use too. There are 5 of us home. I have kids and grandkids stop in often to share meals with us. Im on a diet that requires me to eat a fresh salad everyday too. I am thinking a few larger trays and then because I have so many different seeds, I may like to use the 5×5 trays occasionally too. Please contact me we we can determine best what trays I need to buy.

    Love the idea of single serving trays! Our whole family could participate in growing the greens they like best.
