Paris, France
Standardise your microgreens production in one intensive
Crop Urbanis delivered a bilingual bootcamp covering seeds, substrates, lighting, irrigation and harvest workflows so Paris growers could launch consistent microgreens supply.
Project overview
Urban farms, hospitality groups and social enterprises requested a pragmatic curriculum to scale microgreens in compact Paris spaces. Crop Urbanis designed a two-day intensive mixing classroom instruction with hands-on lab sessions.
Challenges & approach
- Attendees ranged from first-time growers to experienced chefs—curriculum needed modular depth.
- Facilities varied widely, requiring adaptable SOPs for shelving, lighting and airflow.
- Participants needed take-home tools to maintain consistency post-training.
Our contribution
- Structured modules into fundamentals, troubleshooting and scaling tracks with bilingual facilitators.
- Built reference SOPs adaptable to tabletop, rack and container setups with sanitation checklists.
- Provided calculators for seed density, light duration and irrigation, plus video refreshers for teams.
