My Story

Hi, I’m Quandra Gray—founder of What The Sprout. Inspired by my grandmother’s passing, I started this initiative to teach others, especially those in food deserts, how to grow their own food through microgreens.

Let's Grow

I believe that growing your own food, even in the smallest spaces, can empower individuals, transform health, and foster stronger communities. Through What The Sprout, I’ve developed a series of workshops and educational programs that teach people how to cultivate microgreens—whether they’re in classrooms, homes, or workplaces.

"Miss Gray and her microgreens program is a beneficial program. The kids are learning a lot, it’s very well instructed. I wish I had it all through the year."

Why I Do It

I founded What The Sprout to teach people—particularly in healthy food priority areas—how to grow their own food through microgreens. Growing food as a child wasn’t an option for me, so now I’m providing that opportunity to others. My mission is to empower individuals through microgreen cultivation, creating positive social impact with workshops that inspire sustainable and healthy living.

Beyond personal growth, What The Sprout fosters community resilience, food security, and sustainability. By empowering others to grow microgreens, we create a ripple effect of change, transforming individuals and communities.
