Food Safety & Allergens Policy
1. Hygiene and Production Standards
Miracle Greens operates as an indoor microgreens producer following high hygiene and food safety standards. All microgreens are grown in controlled conditions using sanitised equipment, clean growing media, and food-safe handling procedures.
Our internal practices include:
-
regular cleaning and sanitising of trays, tools and surfaces,
-
safe storage of seeds,
-
use of gloves and proper hand hygiene,
-
monitoring of temperature and humidity,
-
prevention of contamination and pests,
-
use of food-grade packaging materials.
These procedures are aligned with guidelines recommended by the Food Standards Agency (FSA) for small food businesses.
2. Allergen Information
Miracle Greens grows a range of microgreens, including one regulated allergen under UK law:
Mustard Microgreens — Contains Mustard (allergen).
All other microgreens do not contain any of the 14 regulated allergens. However, because mustard is produced within the same facility, cross-contamination cannot be fully eliminated. Therefore, all non-mustard products carry the following precautionary statement:
May contain traces of mustard
or
Produced in a facility that handles mustard.
This precaution is recommended for transparency and customer safety.
3. Brassica Microgreens
Several of our products belong to the Brassica family (radish, kale, broccoli). Brassica vegetables are not classified as allergens under UK food law. However, some individuals may be sensitive to this group.
For clarity, products containing Brassica microgreens may include the following optional statement:
Contains Brassica microgreens. Not suitable for individuals sensitive to Brassica vegetables.

Equipment is sanitised between batches, seeds are stored separately, and internal allergen protocols are followed, but total separation cannot be guaranteed.
Customers with severe allergies are advised to contact us before placing an order.
