For years now I've had the dream of owning and operating my own nursery. I've always loved starting plants from seed and propagating them (as you know) but until now I wasn't able to figure out a way to cross over into the business side of plant growing. This weekend I wanted to pass on to you my new project called
The Home Garden Box.
At its most basic level The Home Garden Box is a collection of heirloom plants that create a themed garden. Right now we're mostly only putting together vegetable and herb gardens but I hope to have special offerings as the year progresses. But it's more than just a collection of plants, I've committed to growing these plants without synthetic chemical herbicides or pesticides and I'm only planting from non-GMO sources. I want to help new gardeners and backyard homeowners to start gardens for their families that are safe and healthy.
We have 6 themed gardens all with heirloom plants already planned out. In addition to the plants customers will also receive garden preparation information as well as a planting guide for the garden. Anyone can go to the local home improvement stores and pick up a bunch of regular plants but they don't often get good advice on how to grow them! My favorite garden so far is the
Tomato Lover's Garden, because I love tomatoes, but there are several other gardens in multiple sizes that help to fill out the backyard garden.
We're starting off as a small nursery and are only delivering in and around Spring Hill, Tennessee but are happy to make arrangements for people to pick up their garden boxes. I hope you'll head over to the
Facebook page for The Home Garden Box and like us! Then take a look around at the themed vegetable and herb gardens we're assembling.
If you're nearby and we can help you start your garden this year please give us a try!
