GardenSoxx® is another new product designed to be the foundation to floral or vegetable gardens anywhere! A fine polymer mesh tube (Soxx) is filled with our proprietary composted growing mix and the tubes are placed on any surface including concrete, asphalt or ideally an old tired unused school play ground. The benefit of this system is that you can plant directly into the GardenSoxx® and there is very little maintenance because weed's seeds can’t penetrate the mesh so they don’t grow. This is a much less expensive and more flexible solution to wooden raised beds or a traditional garden plot. Any school can install a garden in a few hours without any expensive machinery or skilled man power. Essentially GardenSoxx® are like organic ‘Lincoln Logs' ; you can design and build whatever you can imagine.

Urban Organics has teamed up with Filtrexx International of Grafton, Ohio, the inventor and licensor of GardenSoxx®. Our two companies are a perfect fit to work together to make this new horticultural technology a household gardening solution.

"Organic Lincoln Logs"

Urban Organics aims to get residential/community gardeners and schools interested in this product because it is a "no-till " system and does not rely on healthy existing soil. The system can easily be fitted with drip irrigation tubing that makes the product a snap to maintain. The school garden can produce a great deal of edible produce and beautiful flowering plants that can be sold to the area community on school market days. Students learn valuable lessons about ecology, biology and economics, possibly leading to career choices in organic agriculture or landscaping, both growing fields of study.
