• From the founder

    I'm Alice, owner & founder of Teeny Greeny, and I believe that anyone can grow their own fresh, tasty superfood in any space they have, with whatever time they can spare - honestly, If I can, then you can too!!

    As one to disrupt the narrative both on a personal level, and when it comes to the sustainable growth of a Micro-business(pun intended) Vs the BIG boys in the business world, I truly feel that small independent businesses can make a huge impact when they build a community of like-minded folk, who all envision changes in the world that will benefit our planet, our people and our animals.  

  • Why we want to do better...... 

    I didn't set out to grow microgreens. I set out to work for myself, because holding down a normal job was always hard for me. I'm dyslexic, and I have ADHD, though I didn't know that until I was 38. For most of my adult life I just thought I was failing at things everyone else found easy.

    I was solo parenting three kids, and I needed something that worked around them, not against them. I'd always loved growing and making things, so I ended up working alongside market gardeners and farmers, then ran a fruit and veg business, and along the way, Teeny Greeny took shape.

    This didn't happen overnight, no business does, and it's not been without trial and error along the way. But with grit, determination and leading with my core values, I've built a fantastic teeny tribe, and I hope you, along with everyone here, shares these values too.

    I am a believer in total transparency and am the first to answer any questions you may have over why and how I do what I do. I'll tell you first off - our seeds come from a small, organic, family-run farm in Italy, since these aren't grown here in the UK. Everything else - our packaging, our packing, our little HQ operation - is proudly based here in Wiltshire. Traded and grown fairly, to make sure everything we sell is as ethical as it can be, wherever in the world it comes from.

  • How we do things...

    Every Teeny Greeny seed packet is hand-packed in small batches, right here at our HQ in sunny Wiltshire.

    Making things this way means minimal to zero waste, and nothing is unnecessarily stripped from the planet just to meet mass demand at a nominal cost. We prefer to offer value over volume - sell less, but do better, is our approach.

    Alongside our core seed packets, we also love creating bespoke growing kits and collaborations for like-minded brands who share our values - so if you're a business looking to bring something a little different to your customers, we'd love to hear from you.

    You can also find a small selection of our seeds stocked in independent retailers who align with our values and ethos.

    And if you didn't already know - 1% of our turnover goes to 1% for the Planet.
