Why a Green Care & Connections Microgreen Box?
We've spoken to a range of staff in care homes responsible for activities & wellbeing. We understand the challenges of catering for a range of needs and abilities with pressures on time and resources.
That's why we've put EVERYTHING you need in a box. Suited to more active & cognitively able residents right through to those being nursed in bed. Our boxes allow for both group and 1:1 work - YOU decide how you want to use the materials.

Our (peat free) Coconut Coir Discs
Coconut coir is a lightweight soilless medium made from coconut husks. While it used to be considered only a by-product of the coconut industry and has no purpose, it has proven to have fantastic value as an eco-friendly and recognized growing medium. You can plant microgreens directly in coconut coir or mix it with other mediums such as soil.
