Caringbah, NSW

Originally intended for a balcony, this lady decided she would like to try her narrow herb planter in the back yard first.

These planters are great for confined spaces, and for placing on decks in a convenient spot to grab herbs and salad greens for the kitchen.

You would be amazed how much you can grow in one of these, and the small soil surface area reduces watering needs to less than monthly with the underground reservoir keeping everything nice and moist for weeks after last rainfall.

Slim planters like this are ideal for the balconies, decks and tight side passages found around Caringbah, where there is rarely room for a full bed. The reservoir below means a raised planter box keeps a steady supply of herbs and salad coming with very little watering, even in the warm Shire summer.

It is an easy, low-fuss way to grow fresh food close to the kitchen. Made from durable, food-safe timber, it is built to last in an exposed Caringbah position. UrbanVeg makes raised planter boxes and self-watering garden beds to suit small spaces across Caringbah and the Sutherland Shire.
