Today we’d like to introduce you to Stephen Cowan.
Two years ago, Stephen was at the height of his ten years career in enterprise software sales and yet he felt unfulfilled. He was hungry to make an impact on our community, society and world. He started this company to help people fill the nutrient gaps in their diet and empower them to rise to today’s challenges. (Insta @stvcow)
Beyond Microgreens is rooted in nature and backed in science. An 18 months old startup with a big vision: establish a foundation for environmental and social change while empowering people to live up to their best health standards.
We do this through using Microgreens in all of our products.
Microgreens are a phase in the plant’s life when it’s about 14 days old and most concentrated in all the micronutrients like vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, enzymes, unique medicinal compounds. It’s the most potent point in the vegetable life and when it’s most beneficial and bioavailable to our health. It’s a concentrated superfood.
Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
Is it ever a smooth road and do you even really want a smooth road? The biggest struggle is education and awareness. Americans are not aware of Microgreens as much as European and other first world countries. We’re grateful for all the failures because we can learn and grow through them. The path ahead is brighter and our team is closer because of it.
Beyond Microgreens – what should we know? What do you do best? What sets you apart from the competition?
Beyond Microgreens is a Boulder, Colorado-based microgreens company, made with 100% Colorado-grown and freeze-dried broccoli microgreens. Each serving of this superfood has concentrated nutrients.

We provide you the easiest way to consume vegetables to fill the nutrient gaps in your diet.
