About Robby D's Lil Greens
A microgreen farm in the heart of the Shenandoah Valley, growing fresh, soil-grown organic microgreens for homes, chefs, and markets.
Our Story
How It All Started
Robby D's Lil Greens began the way many good things do — in a home kitchen. Growing microgreens started as a fresh, flavorful addition to everyday meals. Very quickly, the results went beyond better taste — more energy, more focus, more consistency.
The deeper the research went, the more surprising the findings: these tiny greens — some of the most nutrient-rich foods on the planet — were largely confined to high-end restaurants and specialty kitchens.
That realization sparked a mission: make microgreens accessible, affordable, and part of everyday life. After testing, refining, and learning, a reliable way to grow high-quality, soil-grown microgreens was developed — with prices competitive with fast food, not fine dining.
The Journey
From Kitchen to Community
A Home Kitchen Experiment
Rob Demariano started growing microgreens in his home kitchen for personal use. Very quickly, he noticed improvements in energy, focus, and overall well-being.
Hidden Nutritional Powerhouse
Digging deeper into the science revealed something surprising: these tiny greens — some of the most nutrient-rich foods on the planet — were largely confined to high-end restaurants.
Accessible to Everyone
The goal became simple and bold: make microgreens accessible, affordable, and part of everyday life — with prices competitive with fast food, not fine dining.
Farm to Community
Today, Robby D's Lil Greens supplies microgreens to local families, restaurants, cafes, and farmers markets. The farm also ships shelf-stable products nationwide.
CSA Program Launch
Launching a CSA program that will donate boxes of fresh, locally grown food to families experiencing food insecurity. Good food should never be a luxury.
What We Believe
Our Core Values
Better Food Creates Better Lives
We believe in the power of real, nutrient-dense food to transform health and well-being.
Local Matters
Supporting local means fresher food, stronger community ties, and a smaller environmental footprint.
Freshness Matters
Every tray is planted, tended, and harvested with care — never mass-produced or treated like a commodity.
Microgreens for Every Table
We're on a mission to make microgreens a household staple, not just a chef's secret.
Community Impact
More Than a Farm
Today, the farm supplies microgreens to local families, restaurants, cafes, and farmers markets throughout the region. But the impact goes beyond just growing greens.
Robby D's Lil Greens is deeply involved in the community — running local farmer's markets, working with nonprofits, educating culinary students, and helping make fresh, nutrient-dense food more accessible to everyone.
Looking ahead, a CSA program launching in 2026 will donate boxes of fresh, locally grown food to families experiencing food insecurity — because good food should never be a luxury.
Beyond Fresh Greens
Nationwide Shipping Available
Alongside fresh greens, shelf-stable products ship nationwide — including Sweet Green Splash beverages, Micro-Mush Coffee, microgreen spice blends, and freeze-dried microgreen powders.
