A few weeks ago on WGN-TV Chicago, lifestyle specialist Maisha Wynn "WIN" shared her inspiring journey of health and wellness highlighting the importance of fueling your body with fresh, nutritious ingredients, like our local Rochelle, IL greenhouse grown salad greens. Maisha’s salad in a jar recipe is a perfect example showcasing how eating healthy can also be quick and delicious too. As we prepare to open our Yorkville, IL hub, we're excited to educate more consumers – especially in the Chicagoland – about the benefits of indoor grown greens!
