ABOUT SCINTILLA fARMS
THE BEGINNING - A BROKEN FOOD SYSTEM
Recognizing the substantial issue in the conventional food supply chain, native San Diegans and longtime friends, Blake Cowling and Austin Collins, embarked on creating Scintilla Farms. Residing in a bustling city, they observed the significant distance that most of their food traveled, often originating from foreign countries. The conventional process of freezing, thawing, packaging, and unpacking involved numerous intermediaries with little vested interest in the quality of the food, leading to flavor and nutrient loss along the way.
In response to this challenge, Scintilla Farms joined the urban farming movement. This movement is centered around providing the freshest, locally grown produce to restaurants and households, ensuring accessibility to high-quality, nutritious food. What sets Scintilla Farms apart is their commitment to going the extra mile — they deliver your freshly harvested produce the same day they harvest it. This dedication to freshness and a streamlined supply chain is a testament to their shared vision for revolutionizing the way we access and consume food.

MICROGREENS
GOURMET MUSHROOMS
URBAN FARMING
Microgreens are vegetables that are harvested at an early stage in development when nutrient value is at its peak. Microgreens have up to 40x the nutrients of their fully mature alternatives. In addition to being healthier than regular vegetables, microgreens also have a far greater flavor profile making them increasingly popular in fine cuisine.
