AeroFarms' Micro Broccoli, Rainbow Mix, Micro Kale and Super Mix can now be found in Harris Teeter stores chainwide.

Today, most leafy greens in the U.S. are grown in California or Arizona and transported to the eastern United States. On average, fresh produce travels about approximately 1,500 miles from farm to plate and, today, about 31% of the U.S. food supply is lost in transport, storage, and beyond, according to the USDA.^1,2 AeroFarms’ supply of microgreens to Harris Teeter’s Mid-Atlantic store locations from its farm in Danville, Virginia, not only reduces the risk of food loss, but secures year-round access to these nutrient-packed greens for Harris Teeter shoppers.

“The adjacency of our farm in Virginia to Harris Teeter’s distribution centers translates to longer shelf-life, shorter transportation routes, and, ultimately, more time for shoppers to use and enjoy our microgreens,” said Dane Almassy, SVP of Sales & Marketing at AeroFarms. “With Harris Teeter, we now offer the power of locally grown microgreens to the communities in which we live, play, and farm.”

With an industry-leading shelf life of 18-to-23 days and the proximity of AeroFarms to Harris Teeter stores, shoppers will enjoy microgreens that stay fresh in their home for up to 2 weeks. Because AeroFarms does not grow its plants in soil or use pesticides, consumers can also enjoy the convenience of a ready-to-eat, no-wash-required format. In addition to this unparalleled freshness and convenience, AeroFarms microgreens offer 4-to-40x the nutrition of the mature vegetable counterparts of specific vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients.

AeroFarms microgreens’ diverse taste and versatility allow Harris Teeter shoppers to boost nutritional meals in an endless variety of ways, using great tasting recipes that combine AeroFarms microgreens with other Harris Teeter-branded products.

Harris Teeter shoppers can now find AeroFarms microgreens in all Harris Teeter locations in Virginia, Washington, D.C., Delaware, Maryland, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, and Florida.
