OUR VALUES
WHAT WE STAND FOR
High Quality
Quality matters, quality lasts. We try to over engineer every product we make. Our goal is to NEVER have a product break or wear out during normal use. Countless hours spent during the design process, rigorous product testing, and high quality materials help ensure longetivty.
Higher quality materials cost more. There is no way around that. While many products today are build using inferior materials, we try to build proucts like they did 50 years ago. Strong, solid, and made to last.
Our products aren’t cheap – we know that. Given that we want you to get more than your money’s worth and only have to buy a product once.
Locally Made
United States manufacturing is disappearting at a alarming rate. More and more companies are going oversease to manufcature products to cut costs. These cost savings come with other costs – the loss of local jobs, the fostering of sub-standard employment and environmental costs in other countries, and often a lesser quality product.
We don’t believe that the trade-offs are worth it. Given that our products aren’t as cheap as the could be, but we believe their better than they would be if we tried to cut costs.
Whenever possible we try to manufacture our products within the US or Canada keeping jobs local. Every purchase supports not only our business, but many other US and Canadian business.
Fair Priced
We price our products as low as we possibly can. We strive to charge you a fair price while allowing us to make a fair profit to pay our suppliers fairly and ourselves fairly.
Making a quality product locally and innovating new products isn’t cheap. Producing copious amounts of free educational content isn’t cheap. But those are things we are committed to. Each purchase supports our endeavours to further this movement and help you into the future.
Sure there are cheaper off brand products. Sure you can save by low quality Chinese made tools. But there is a cost. We might not have the cheapest product out there and we are OK with that, because we know we have the best product out there. As Benjamin Franklin said “The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.”

The Paper Pot Transplanter in the Field
I like the dumping soil on for multiple trays at once strategy. Do you single fill trays or multiple fill like this?
Repost from @beaverlandfarms “Seeding salanova lettuce and parsley in 6” @paperpotco chains. Not pictured, radishes, spinach, and beets.
The soil is still a few weeks away from being warm enough to plant into, but we can start our successions early and get them in ground with a nice head start.
Stay tuned, once they’ve had two weeks in the greenhouse, I’ll show you how we get them in the ground!”
