🌱 This Arbor Day, grow something!

Think you’re not much of a gardener? Don’t know where to start? We’ve got you. 💚

Our plant pods take the guesswork out of growing. Each pod comes with a seed already inside and is specially formulated with the correct pH and EC levels to give it the nutrients it needs to get off to a healthy start.

The pod also holds water, helping to keep the seed hydrated and reducing stress as it begins to grow.

Just add water, place it somewhere it can thrive, and watch your little plant come to life. 🌿

From Italian and Asian herbs to edible flowers and catnip, there’s something for every budding gardener.

This Arbor Day, start small. Grow something. 🌱

• ½ tsp baking soda

Honest answer: our chopping boards aren’t 100% plastic free. They’re made from 80% compressed pine wood and 20% LFG formaldehyde-free resin — and we’ll always be upfront about that.

But here’s the thing. That resin is formaldehyde-free, food-safe, and what makes these boards genuinely durable. This isn’t cheap plastic. It’s a better choice — and in sustainable living, better choices are exactly what it’s about. 🌿
