About

Originating from Central Asia and South Asia, alfalfa sprouts have rocketed this mighty herb to popularity among the health conscious. Alfalfa sprouts – the early germinations of the seed – are very different to micro alfalfa, which can be added to any salad to add some beautifully leafy texture and crisp flavour. Pair with some sweet and tangy mango for a vibrant salad. 

What’s its story?

Alfalfa – less commonly known as lucerne – is a plant that’s been cultivated to feed livestock around the world for hundreds of years. Thought to have originated in southwestern Asia, it was first introduced to the Americas by Spanish and Portuguese conquistadors.
