Description

The Kitchen Garden Trough from Forest is a unique and rustic looking planter that is certain to draw the eye in your garden. It is ideal for growing vegetables or herbs and it has become a popular purchase for “kitchen gardeners” looking to grow their own produce at home to use in their cooking. It boasts a good capacity, holding approximately 121 litres of compost. This gives you excellent flexibility over what you can grow, and how much of it. Join the ever-growing movement towards greener living and experience the satisfaction of enjoying food you’ve produced yourself!

The planter is raised from the ground, which not only means you don’t have to get on your knees or stoop over, but this also acts as a deterrent to pests – a useful feature if you’re growing things to eat. It also features in Forest’s Accessible Gardening range, designed in partnership with Thrive, as it is much more accessible to wheelchair users. No disability should stop someone’s enjoyment of gardening, so it is with this in mind that products like the Kitchen Garden Trough are becoming increasingly popular.
