Description

Caja is a super-efficient growing container that evolved from the tomato fields of Florida into an easy-to-use system that allows families, schools, community groups and business the option to plant and produce wonderful food plants, aromatics and flowers.

The secret is the built in water-reservoir that continually wicks water directly to the roots of the plants. The plants stay hydrated for longer periods of time and as a result grow faster and yield more compared to traditional container gardens. In addition, the mulch cover helps to minimize water loss from evaporation, keeps the weeds (and animals) out and helps to warm the soil in the cooler spring and fall months.

Go green, eat healthy, and join the local food movement by growing your own fresh veggies and herbs in your front yard, backyard, rooftop, deck, driveway, patios or wherever you have a sunny space!

Dimensions: 74cm x 34cm x 29cm (29” x 13.5” x 11.5”).

Capacity: 57 liter (2 cubic feet) planting volume and 10 liter (2.6 gallon) water reservoir
