The mixed greens mixture is comprised mainly of red lettuce, arugula, mizuna, tah tsoi (tatsoi), baby kale, baby chard, mustard greens, and ruby streaks, and can vary depending on season and the availability of crops grown. The mixture is one of the more popular items sold from UBC farm as part of the UBC Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program, to various restaurant customers, and to several UBC food outlets. Recently, the salad mix has been modified to incorporate more baby lettuce into the mixture.
