The difference is quality, service, and giving back. At Urban Store we pride ourselves on offering top quality gardens, all the necessary organic products, and expert advice.   And we go a step further with our outreach program.  Over the past 5 years Urban Store has donated gardens, labor, and excellent teaching to communities around the Southwest such as families living on the former dump in Juarez, Mexico, Native American reservations, and community gardens for low income people in Albuquerque.

COMPOSTERS!  All gardeners know the value of adding compost to their gardens.  Compost adds nutrients to the soil which allows your plants to flourish.  Veggiegrower Gardens now carries five different types of composters that will help you turn kitchen, garden, and yard waste into valuable fertilizer.  Two of our composters are specifically for use with worms (Tumbleweed Worm Farm and Can-O-Worms) and three of them work by mixing green and brown materials together and allowing naturally occuring micro organisms to break the materials down.  Prices range from $40-260.  We also have composting worms and Compostar compost inoculant.

The garden above was filled with soil and planted on June 30, 2007 and the picture below was taken on July 25, 2007 (less than a month later!).

Come on in and see different garden models, check out our no smell worm composting bins, buy vegetable seeds in bulk and get all of your micro garden supplies!

NEW!!!  Do-it-yourself kits are now able to be shipped anywhere in the United States.  Build your own Veggiegrower Garden at a fraction of the cost with your own new or recycled lumber!  For information go to “Do-it-yourself kits” page.

Veggiegrower Gardens has developed growing systems that produce great tasting and nutrient rich food and require less water, time, and effort than traditional agriculture.
