About the Farm
Green Gorilla Farm is an innovative soil-based microgreen farm rooted in the hills of Torrington, Connecticut. Founded on the principle that true flavor is the proof of nutrition, the farm grows all of its greens in living organic soil—never hydroponics—utilizing a proprietary blend of compost, worm castings, kelp meal, lobster meal, and other natural amendments. This approach mirrors the intricate symbiosis found in nature, resulting in greens that are not only more nutritious, but also bold, vibrant, and full of life.
What sets Green Gorilla apart is a steadfast belief in microbiology and the wisdom of nature. Their irrigation system is fortified with organic molasses, humic acids, and other bio-available nutrients, feeding soil microbes that in turn support plant health and deepen nutrient uptake. The outcome is a microgreen with exceptional shelf life, texture, and flavor complexity—an offering that speaks to chefs, grocers, and home cooks alike.
Led by Ed Patterson, Green Gorilla Farm serves customers across Northwest Connecticut with weekly harvests and a wide selection of specialty blends, from "Wild Wasabi" to "Crimson Crunch." Their packaging is clean, stackable, and retail-ready, and their commitment to their partners extends beyond the product—offering demos, recipes, and tastings to make each collaboration a success. At Green Gorilla, the mission is clear: to prove that when greens are grown the right way, the difference is undeniable.
