Why grow at home

Food from your patio skips the trucks, the ships, and the plastic.

Greens grown a few steps from your kitchen travel almost no distance and need no clamshell or bag. One home system will not feed a household on its own. It does mean fewer food miles, less packaging, and fresher salad. Read why we grow at home.
