GROW YOUR OWN GARDEN, NO GREEN THUMB REQUIRED


GrowUps






Fresh, local produce is the way to go.  But it can be expensive to buy and hard to grow, especially in the city.  Gardening can involve a lot of guesswork, whether it’s picking the right plants and seeds or matching it with the right spacing and planting times.  But, worry no more because with UrbnEarth’s new garden system, UrbMat, gardening can be made simple and fun for everyone.

Created by Phil Weiner, the UrbMat, is intended to help families, educators, and kids learn about gardening as well as protecting urban resources.  The UrbMat makes growing food and flowers easy; all you need to have is six inches of healthy soil, water, and sunlight.  Or, it can be used with raised beds or existing soil.

If you don’t have a huge backyard, or maybe no backyard at all, don’t fret because the UrbMat is a small-space garden system that helps you grow 12 different types of herbs, vegetables, and 

flowers such as arugula, basil, carrots, cilantro, chard, lettuce, marigolds, spinach, radishes, and kale.

The UrbMat is 3’ × 2’ and creates an optimized planting and growth layout for the included GrowUps Plant Starters.  GrowUps are a mix of chili powder, compost, worm castings, clay, and non-GMO seeds.  To make it even easier, plant types are color coded, pre-spaced, and integrated with companion planting.  And, there is no digging required.  In addition, the Urbmat controls weeds, saves water, maximizes small spaces, and takes the guesswork out of the gardening process.

The UrbMat can be reused for several seasons and will last over three years if in direct sunlight.  And, GrowUps can be reordered for easy re-planting.

Also, for every mat bought, two meals are given to children suffering from hunger in the United Stated.  According to Wiener, the idea is simple—grow food, give food.
