Strawberry & Pea Microgreens Salad

The Pea microgreens from C&L Farms are sweet, crunchy and are a good source of fiber. Use them in the vegetarian salad below in early Spring. Look for fresh strawberries at the Cotton Mill Farmers Market in early May each year and pair them with our microgreens for a healthy salad.
