Fresh greens are a kitchen standard, but they can vary in terms of how they are harvested and delivered, making a significant difference to nutrition and convenience in the kitchen. Here at Annam Milk is known for our focus of natural farming and Organic Milk in Chennai, we provide the same level of attention to the greens that we have delivered to your home.

One key difference is that our baby greens are delivered with no roots, and that is both a healthier and more sustainable choice that makes for convenience.

What Are Baby Greens?

Baby greens are immature leafy vegetables gathered before they mature into their fully grown state. The young leaves are tender, colorful and nutrient dense. Research and farmers' practices have shown that young greens contain greater quantities of vitamins, antioxidants and minerals compared to mature greens.

Since they are picked at an early stage, they are also less exposed to pests and environmental stressors, since they are still pretty much young, they are fresher and oftentimes healthier with less potential for insect damage. In conclusion, these greens are nutritionally denser and also more resilient by nature.

Why Do We Remove the Roots?

You may wonder why the roots are left in the soil? There are two reasons.

First, it's better without rooting. Roots can add time and difficulty to the cooking and washing of greens. We cut the greens at the baby stage and deliver them root free, so they are easy to wash, chop and be cooked right away. This helps you in the kitchen while keeping the most nutrition possible.

Second, it is better for the soil. Usually when roots go back into the earth, we can enrich it, and maintain its natural balance by doing so. This is in accordance with the concept of natural farming, especially the model of Nammazhvar's Vaer Mannukku as the roots belong to the soil. This is a method that is sustainable: thereby, ensuring that the land will continue to give back season after season, without the loss in fertility.

Nutritional Edge of Baby Greens

Greens are harvested early so the nutrient profile is appropriate for sending to market. Baby leaves have a full load of vitamins including A, C, and K, folate iron and calcium. In addition to vitamins and minerals they have a much greater antioxidant value which helps support immunity and wellbeing.

Baby greens are soft unlike older leaves, making them easy to digest for sensitive digestion or for children/adolescents who are still put off by the textural qualities of tougher leaves. Regular use of tender greens promotes gut health and can improve energy levels and immunity.

Cooking Made Easier

Convenience in cooking is another factor. Greens require little to no preparation. No tough stems to cut off, no bags of soil-covered roots to rinse and clean. Whether you're tossing together a quick stir-fry, smoothie or traditional keerai masiyal, baby greens provide a time-saving convenience, allowing you to make good food without sacrificing taste or nutrition.

In busy families, especially those living and working in metropolitan Chennai, and short on time, the convenience is considerable. Fresh greens that are at your fingertips will help families fit more healthful meals into their days.

Customer Choice Comes First

At Annam Milk, customer preferences are key. We feel strongly, and recommend root-free greens when possible for a higher quality nutritious nutrient and ease of use, but we also provide greens with roots for those who feel more comfortable that way.

We're not inflexible ‐ we listen, learn, and enhance our services based on your suggestions when feasible.
