Why VegTrug?

What are we about?

Built with sustainability, comfort, and longevity in mind, VegTrug products are thoughtfully designed to support healthier plants and happier gardeners.

VegTrug's mission, from our very beginning, is to make growing your own food easier, more accessible, and more rewarding for everyone.

Our products, wherever possible, are made from FSC® certified sources from managed forests that we control. We take only what we need and give back in multiples.

We make tools that last, and we hope they make you happier and healthier too.

The VegTrug Classic

Our commitment to sustainable gardening began with the original VegTrug Classic, which we proudly produce to this day.

The Classic is available in two sizes — the 1m and 1.8m editions — and two colours, to complement any size of garden.

The thoughtful V shape design was first sketched on the kitchen table of our founders. The idea was to reduce the need for bending and allow a seated or wheelchair position, providing accessible and comfortable gardening without compromising on growth: the V shape allows you to grow shallow and deep-rooted vegetables alike, something usually impossible with raised beds.

What was that about colours?

The Classic, like much of our range, comes in our two iconic colourways: the original, natural finish and the more modern grey wash edition, both finished with a simple, water-based preservative.

Is that it?

Absolutely not! From cold frames and greenhouses to extend your growing season, covers to protect your planters over the winter, to self-watering upgrades to make life easier, all of our planters come with a range of extras and accessories. We've got you covered.

This is a sample of our Classic 1m accessories, but you can click through to any of the planters on this pages to see their compatible accessories.

The Wall Hugger

The Classic was an instant hit and we're pleased to say our wonderful customers love it. The trouble was... it quickly became obvious that not everyone is fortunate enough to have a garden.

So we went back to the drawing board, determined so solve this. The solution? The Wall Hugger.

These compact planters are perfect for balconies, patios, and smaller outdoor spaces, helping bring your dream garden into any home. The Wall Hugger is a narrower VegTrug Classic; all the benefits of the design in limited spaces.

The Herb Garden

We realised we could still take this one step further. Our Herb Garden is designed to make growing fresh herbs easy and enjoyable, even in the smallest spaces.

With these additions, we’ve made it possible for everyone to enjoy the benefits of homegrown produce, no matter where they live.

By making fresh vegetables and herbs so accessible, we’re helping bring the planter-to-plate lifestyle to life, turning homegrown produce into meals you and your family can enjoy every day.
