Woolly Pockets – Gardens in a Bag
Filed Under: Green Technology, Organic Gardening on July 22, 2009
This is a really cool idea and definitely an awesome product line too. These are breathable “pockets’ made from 60% recycled plastic bottles for growing plants in. They are made in the USA and look sort of like pockets from the back of your jeans or the front of a work shirt.
Woolly Pockets come in various sizes and shapes and are made to grow plants in: flowers, herbs, vegetables, whatever you’d like. Think of them as canvas-like pots. The breathable containers actually increase oxygen and ease drainage for the plants’ roots, which makes for healthier plants.
They aren’t exactly cheap, though, but $250 gets you a whole garden of them (which they call a “Woolly Meadow”) or you can buy “pots” individually for your various needs.
The Woollys are durable enough for outdoors and chic enough for indoor use.
Of course, as their site proclaims, no Woolly Mammoths were harmed in the making of Woolly Pockets…
