Vegetable Gardening
For you, there’s nothing better than enjoying the fruits of your own labor. A classic vegetable garden combines the best of two great worlds—gardening AND food! All the hard work of growing and harvesting your own crops is totally worth it when you get to share fresh, healthy foods with your family and friends. Try our KVG “The Good Stuff” Fertilizer formula for a super successful harvest!
Container Gardening
Maybe you don’t have the room for a proper garden, or maybe you just like to keep your plants a little closer to home! Whether they’re inside as houseplants or out decorating the patio, container gardens are a great way to add life to your living spaces. Keep your potted plants happy and healthy with our high-quality KVG Potting Soil.
Flower Gardening
You’re captivated by gorgeous flowering perennials and big, beautiful annual blooms—and we don’t blame you! Flower beds and containers don’t have to take up much space, but if you’ve got the room, why not fill your landscape with their stunning colors and lovely fragrances? Our KVG “The Good Stuff” Fertilizers are perfectly formulated to encourage bountiful blooms.
Low-Maintenance Gardening
You can appreciate the beauty of a well-kept garden but you might not have the time or interest to make yours picture-perfect right now. For you, a low-maintenance garden full of native plants and easy perennials that can essentially take care of themselves is ideal. Try mulching to encourage soil water retention, so your plants won’t suffer if you need to skip watering day!
