Who We Are
North Allston Farms is located in Boston, sandwiched between the Charles River and the Mass Pike. Our mission is to provide the local community with fresh, delicious, and responsibly-grown produce. We offer microgreens grown-to-order, available to enjoy within 24 -48 hours from harvest.
We use non-GMO mostly organic seeds and organic soil, then package the microgreens in plant-based, compostable containers. The greens are free of pesticides and BPAs, and the soil is composted and reused.
My Story
I grew up in northern India, then moved to Boston in 1994 and have lived in North Allston for over 25 years. My wife and I raised our two boys here, and I have grown organic vegetables in our backyard for over a decade. Every year I experimented with fitting more plants and growing more produce, and I was never satisfied with only having one, two, or even ten raised beds. I wanted to take my growing to the next level, but I couldn’t imagine leaving Allston.
A year ago, I learned about microgreens and loved everything about them. Their nutrition value, taste, and compact growing needs were exactly what I was looking for to upscale my farming dreams. Finally, I can pursue my passion for growing nutritious and sustainable food to share with my neighbors, friends, and community.
