Picking the Greens

Hey there, Greetings! We just got an order for fresh Moringa Greens on our website. What I’ll do is I’ll come and I’ll grab the very tips of all of our freshly new green growth and the very tips (really just the top few branches) that’s especially for our fresh green orders that are coming in at growmoringa.com.

I’ll show you what we’re going to do next in packaging these fresh greens. The tips are the best part, plus it helps us make our trees bigger and more bushy, so order your fresh greens at growmoringa.com. Let’s go ahead and see the next steps of how we get this in a package and to your front door fresh and green just like this.

Stripping the Leaves

Now that we’re inside, the first thing we do is start getting all the big stems off; that way when we put it in the package it just has the soft little stems. and you can kind of go faster with it if you grab the branch or big stem in one hand and wrap your other hand loosely around the branch or stem and slowly strip all of the greens off. That is what we’ll do here. We get our nice fresh greens straight into the package right after being on a tree just a few moments ago. Let’s go ahead and get this in a bag.

Stuffing The Greens

Next we’ll want to put this in the bag and we have our scale here so we’ll seeexactly how much we have. 

This amount is about 50 grams and that is about how much you want in one of these smaller vacuum bags. Keep in mind 50 grams of fresh greens is a lot different than 50 grams of wet greens, because it’s about five times as much. We’ll go ahead and seal that up.

Sealing    

 

Then we’ll come over to our sealer and we’ll go ahead and stick the bag right into the gasket area. We start the vacuum but we stop it after most of the air is out but we don’t want to damage the cell walls of the leaves so we don’t vacuum it all the way down. Now it’s done and sealed. It’s fresh with very little oxygen in there but we didn’t break any of the leaves. It’s not too too tight.

Packaging

Next, we’ll get in a cool pack and we’ll get in the shipping in the shipment box right away. Now we have our fresh greens, we have our labels on there, they are 50 grams each; we’re going to put them inside of our thermal pack with some cooler packs. These are some dry ice cooler packs and we just put two in here to keep it real nice and cold during the travels.

Shipping

We’ll go ahead and seal the bag, then roll the excess down and tape it, then we’llput it in a box so that it stays super super cold. In the box is the fresh greens and we add a packing slip. We then stick a label on it and take it to the post office.
