Sounds like a cool plan! I make micro greens for myself year around!

you may need a more secure system to keep curious raccoons out of there along with mice or other nocturnal creatures.

Ok.
Does the sprout density look normal? It seems sparse to me.

i don't see any sprouts at all in that picture, but then again, i can't really see the best so perhaps they are there...

Like @flowerbug, i see no sprouts but i do see a lot of seeds in 3 trays.
A little googling will produce numerous helps for setting up a viable operation. If that were my operation i’d mow to reclaim that wilderness and plumb the shed for water, even just a garden hose as your’ gonna do a bunch of rinseing. If you intend to market the produce, you’ll need to consider packaging as well, and refrigeration.
a few sprouts for personal use is easy enough but will take some time and careful monitoring; on a grand scale as in “selling to the public” it’s a lot bigger commitment.
good luck with that.
