What it is:
EarthBox is a foolproof, patented growing system that controls soil conditions, eliminates guesswork and guarantees bountiful yields.
Why we love it:
If you're short on space and time or are a novice gardener, you'll love the EarthBox Garden System. Developed by commercial farmers, it comes with everything you need and it's designed to grow healthy plants without much effort. The planter box has a water reservoir to ensure the plant roots get consistent water and fertilizer. It comes with a black plastic cover that also serves as mulch and keeps the soil moist from water condensation. Your garden will grow faster with bigger, tastier crops all in the compact space of 29"L x 13"W x 11"H.
Who we'd give it to:
Someone without a green thumb or who lives in a
small space and would like to grow fresh herbs and vegetables. It's also the perfect
gardening gift for
busy people.
Where to get it:
From
Amazon.com for a maintenance-free $40.95.
