Earthboxes

The scientifically proven way to grow your own fresh
"right from the garden" vegetables!

We at NJR are BIG fans of Earthboxes. And we're big fans of home gardening too, so the two go hand-in-hand. Earthboxes have been designed in such a way as to provide maximum growth and yield
potential for your plants.

We utilize this page to showcase our small but productive Earthbox
garden. It's something we are excited to do each year! Enjoy the photos
and check out Earthboxes if you are planning a container garden of your own.

The garden was planted on May 22nd - later than I would have liked. However, the first set of pictures shows the progress after only a week. When first planted, the squash was about 3 or 4 inches tall, as were the peppers and lettuce. The tomatoes stood a little higher but were well below the first cross rung on the support.

We'll try to update photos once a week or so. Come back and see how our garden grows!

Well, unfortunately time has gotten away from us this year. The Earthbox garden flourished. We had lots of zucchini, squash and peppers....still some peppers left. What really grew well this year were the tomatoes. We only had two plants but you would never know to look at this picture. At one point I counted over 70 tomatoes on two plants. A very good year!
