Little Leaf Farms, the country's No. 1 brand of packaged lettuce sustainably grown through controlled environment agriculture (CEA), is expanding its line of leafy greens with the launch of a new lettuce blend, Sweet & Crispy. Featuring two of the brand's fan-favorite varieties – Baby Crispy Green Leaf and Sweet Baby Butter Leaf, both of which are best-sellers in the packaged salad category, according to recent Nielsen NIQ sales data – Sweet & Crispy offers a delightful blend of crispy and buttery textures with a touch of sweetness.

"Our fans have come to know and love our Baby Crispy Green Leaf and Sweet Baby Butter Leaf varieties for their versatility and fresh flavor, so we thought it was time to offer folks the best of both worlds in our new Sweet & Crispy blend," said Emily Voshell, brand manager at Little Leaf Farms. "Sweet & Crispy combines the unmistakable crunch of Little Leaf Farms with a sweetness that will transform any salad or sandwich, all in one convenient pack."

Little Leaf Farms grows the varieties in this new blend following the same practices as all of its leafy green offerings – free of pesticides, herbicides and fungicides and nurtured in an ecosystem that harnesses sunlight and fresh rainwater for sustainable production. Unlike field-grown lettuce, Little Leaf Farms' leafy greens are hands-free from seeding to harvest, which means no washing is required. Little Leaf Farms lettuce is harvested daily and delivered from greenhouse to grocery store in just 24 hours.

Little Leaf Farms' Sweet & Crispy blend is available in 4-ounce packages with an SRP of $3.99 and can be found on retail shelves throughout the eastern half of the U.S.

The launch of Sweet & Crispy blend follows Little Leaf Farms' recent expansion at its McAdoo, Pennsylvania campus, where the brand has just opened its third state-of-the-art greenhouse and begun construction on a fourth, set to open in fall 2025. Little Leaf Farms currently operates the largest leafy greens CEA campus in North America, spanning a combined 40 acres across its sites in Massachusetts and Pennsylvania. An additional 10 acres will be added with the opening of its fourth greenhouse in McAdoo next fall.
