Our Story
More Than Microgreens
We are Marino & Co., a faith-driven family growing First Fruits Microgreens. We're a family of seven raising five boys, and we started this to help people eat healthier while honoring God in how we work.
We're called First Fruits because we give God our first and our best. We donate 10% of every dollar we earn to ministries and organizations making a difference around the world. When you buy from us, you're helping nourish both people and purpose.

Our Mission
Why We Grow
Grow with Excellence
We grow nutrient-dense microgreens with real care, by hand. Every tray is sown, nurtured, and harvested intentionally — never mass-produced.

10% of every purchase is donated to Kingdom work — ministries and organizations making a difference around the world.
Serve Our Community
Supporting local families, restaurants, farmers markets, and businesses across Northwest Florida with fresh, healthy food.
Our Process
From Seed to Harvest
We grow everything by hand in Northwest Florida — fresher than anything on a grocery shelf. Here's how it works.
We Sow
Every tray is sown by hand with care and intention.
We Nurture
Each crop is tended with care — the right light, water, and time.
We Harvest
We harvest fresh — often the same day you receive your order.
You Enjoy
Peak nutrition, flavor, and freshness — straight from our hands to your table.
Why Microgreens
Small Greens.
Massive Nutrition.
Microgreens are young vegetables harvested just one to three weeks after sprouting — right when their nutrition and flavor peak. Research has found that some varieties carry up to 40 times more of certain vitamins and nutrients than their mature counterparts.
They're more than a garnish. They're a concentrated source of living nutrition you can add to almost anything — smoothies, salads, sandwiches, eggs, tacos, and more.
