Gardening made easy - no matter what size of space you may ( or may not ) have, thanks to startup, Seed Pantry.
Let’s face it - there are few things as satisfying as growing your own. Whether it’s vegetables or flowers, it’s much more rewarding to have cultivated your own produce as opposed to simply buying in the local supermarket.Of course, for some of us, limited outdoor space and gardens can seriously impact any green-fingered ambitions we may have. And for those of us who have the space, our lack of gardening activity can often simply be put down to good old procrastination!
We’d love to grow our own - but we wouldn’t know where to begin - so we don’t!
If you can identify with either of the scenarios above, then our latest startup of the week is for you.
Seed Pantry is a service which “is on a mission to get everyone growing more food and flowers”.
They want all of us to reap the benefits and rewards that come from growing our own - irrespective of where we live and how limited our space is in the traditional garden sense.
And they offer heaps of options to help us do just that.
For example, there is a Grow Club subscription service which delivers a range of bulbs, seeds and young plants to your door each month - always arriving at the right time to plant and grow. Each box is also filled with all the useful info and tips to enable you to expand your plant knowledge as well as keeping up with the latest gardening trends.
There is also a whole host of Seed Kits suitable for all types of gardeners with all sizes of space - from indoor herb starter packs for those with indoor space only through to jumbo allotment packs for those who have plenty of outdoor space.
One of the most innovative options on offer is the Grow Pods. In essence these are smart automated systems which enable plants to be grown indoors with no soil, limited light and all year round. From herbs and salads to flowers - it’s perfect for growing them all.
All in all they sound pretty fab - wouldn’t you agree?
We love what Seed Pantry is doing. And with startups like this around there really ought to be no excuses for any of us not to give gardening and growing our own a proper go.
