VEGEBAG: THE POP-UP VEGE PATCH

-

As the entire world shifts their focus closer to home in the wake of COVID-19 and large-scale lockdowns, Kiwis are getting back to basics and reviving the good old vege garden in a whole new sustainabl­e way.

The winner of Product of the Year at the Chelsea Flower Show 2020, the Vegebag by Vegepod® is changing the way urban Kiwis are growing their own.

Created to provide people with a sustainabl­e gardening product that works, the Vegebag is perfect for any urban setting. Vegebags give people the chance to have fresh, sustainabl­y produced produce right on their doorstep, whether it’s an apartment balcony, townhouse courtyard, or large backyard. Plus, the affordable price-tag means even more

Kiwis reap the rewards and joy of their own fresh homegrown veges.

The Vegebag is made of a super fine mesh which creates a microclima­te perfect for growing just about anything. The unique mesh also helps with pest control, weather moderation and weed protection.

The zip-up cover reduces any weather or pest related damage to plants while also providing ideal conditions for amazing growth rates.

The most important feature of the Vegebag is Vegepod’s signature wicking technology, meaning vegetables are watered from below, while soil nutrients are recycled back up, rather than draining away like other pots and bags. The wicking well captures and recycles rainwater - great news for those in drought-prone areas.

With overall sustainabi­lity, ease and speed of growing, the convenient size ideal for any urban home as well as affordabil­ity, it’s no wonder green-fingered Kiwis are falling in love with Vegebag.
