Made by Us

Bringing Vermont ingenuity to gardeners nationwide

Gardener's Supply Company offers thousands of products from the U.S., Europe, Asia, and the Americas, but our signature items are made by us — right here in Vermont.

We dove into manufacturing when we realized that most gardening products missed the mark. As gardeners ourselves, we knew we could do better. Our first product was an unusual saltbox-style greenhouse that northern gardeners loved for the way it maximized every last little bit of precious light. Next, we tried our hand at garden sheds. These, too, were a hit. Pretty soon, our mantra became "If it exists, we'll make it better. And if it doesn't exist, we'll make it!"

That attitude has led to our best-selling Lifetime Aluminum Raised Bed Corners and In-Line Connectors — which make building a custom raised bed super easy.

We then started building complete raised bed kits and elevated garden boxes — and we're now the nation's largest supplier of raised and elevated cedar garden beds.
