Ethics: Nowadays most of the plant pots sold at big box stores are mass-produced overseas. Workers are paid pennies and often endure dangerous conditions to make these products. We make all of our terracotta plant pots in the USA, using sustainable and safe small manufacturing processes. Function: Our clay pots for plants work really well. We test them all in our own home and garden, and also constantly ask our retailers (plant experts) for feedback to retain their quality. They are always able to tell us what works best, and how we can improve on what isnt working. We also look to history for clues as to what works really well, and try to steer clear of new design fads that dont take drainage into account. Beauty: We offer our pots in a range of shapes, colors and textures that are finished with the highest quality materials. The end result is smooth planters, no sharp edges. Our pots make your plants really stand out! Hand it Down: Our clay pots for plants can live a long life. They can be handed down through generations, perhaps becoming a prized possession for some. Eventually they will be broken, but even then the shards can be used to facilitate drainage at the bottom of another plant pot. Who are our pots for? The beauty of making handmade plant pots is that they really are for everyone. There is no specific type of person that buys a plant pot. We sell pots to engineers, clergy, college students, gardeners that would put us to shame with the best tomatoes in town, and our favorite, the kid with pocket money to buy something for a family members birthday. Why We Do What We Do: There is nothing that compares to making something and having someone else love it. Did you ever bake a dessert and have people Ooh over it? We get those Oohs every day. We are so lucky! And on top of that, which by itself could be enough, our beautiful terracotta plant pots are ethically made right here in the USA.
