The Clean Leaf Story

In 2016, Erik Wiesbock began researching our nation’s industrial food system and the damage it does to our environment and our bodies. He realized how much of a positive impact local and sustainably grown food can have on a community. After studying agricultural practices by world- renowned sustainable agriculture farmers such as Jean-Martin Fortier, as well as visiting farms practicing permaculture and sustainable agriculture, he began applying what he had learned to start his own gardens from seed to vegetable. Fast forward to 2023, now living in a suburban setting, Erik researched ways to continue his passion for farming. Microgreens were the perfect fit as they take substantially less space to grow and are more nutrient dense than conventional vegetables. In late 2023, he partnered with his brother-in-law to start Clean Leaf Microgreens.

Sustainability

Unlike conventional agriculture, microgreen farms leave little footprint on the environment. There are no pesticides or chemicals used at Clean Leaf, so both customers and the environment are protected from the adverse effects of pesticide application. Because our Clean Leaf Microgreens are grown in trays, no water is wasted and all of the left-over materials from the trays are composted. Erik’s passion for farming is mirrored by his commitment to sustainability. In January 2024, he was appointed to the Prince William County Sustainability Commission. His dedication to environmental conservation is recognized throughout the community and is applied at the forefront of his agricultural practices.
