The hydroponic salad greens grower uses sunlight and captured rainwater to grow lettuce under glass year-round.

The event includes:

  • Fireside chat with CEO Paul Sellew;
  • Salad tips and recipes with Lexi’s Clean Kitchen;
  • Cocktail/mocktail creations inspired by Little Leaf Farms with bartender Chris Kiertz;

  • Giveaways and coupons.

Anyone can virtually attend this event by registering through the RSVP page and joining the Zoom webinar.

The company is producing more than 2 million packages of lettuce each month and broadening distribution to stores across New England and into New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and throughout the East Coast.
