We just loved this garden set. All the parts are really strong and high quality, it's amazing they are made from recycled milk containers. The seeds are all organic, and it comes with compacted soil that looks like a hockey puck but fluffs up into a full pot of soil. Very cool!!!

My 3 year old daughter had a blast filling the pots with the dirt & seeds, and now everything is growing. She waters them all the time (watering can & a spray bottle) and notes if it's too windy or rainy and wants to check on her plants all the time. Lots of ongoing learning...we hope to cook & eat some of the herbs later this summer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Gardening With Little Ones, March 13, 2010

I stumbled across this last year and bought it for my son and I to do together. I wanted to introduce him to gardening in any small way I could and we also talked about recycling, what materials everything was made from. It was so fun going to look everyday to see if the seeds had sprouted and he was very excited when they did. When they were big enough, we transplanted them into the garden and watched them grow all season. He was so excited when the huge sunflowers opened and was proud that he had grown it himself! He will plant new seeds this year and I will buy another set for my younger son and let him grow his own too. I love the colors, the pots are very durable. The kids found them this winter and have been using them to play in the snow. They are very solid and take all their abuse. Love this product and how something so simple can teach so much.
