Not sure that the name 'greens n grains' is a trade name, copy right??
A generic term used for a seed mix of mainly native grasses, herbs and weeds seeds (seasonally variable pending weather conditions, soil types and geographical location of the property) these would normally removed/winnowed out by the farmer when harvesting for example. Seasonally available at the farm gate or commercially bought through out the year at selected stores.

I hope this helps.
