Welcome to Ready-to-Grow Gardens! We are an edible garden company that helps others grow organic vegetables, herbs and fruits all year in Miami and South Florida.
We help others grow produce as locally as possible by designing, installing and maintaining edible gardens for homes, schools, businesses, and communities. We specialize in raised bed gardens and food forests.
A great way to grow fresh organic vegetables and herbs is with our raised bed garden packages. These include everything needed to start, including:
- a beautiful extra-durable frame built from reclaimed wood (greenheart)
- our rich soil blend
- organically grown vegetable and herb plants (seen here)
- organic fertilizer
- organic pesticides
- trellises (for vining plants)
- and mulch
*Automatic drip irrigation systems available at an additional cost (usually $200-$300)
There are many advantages of growing edible plants in raised bed gardens. Raised beds help to keep the soil from eroding, are easier to weed and make gardening easier on the back. Since one usually doesn’t walk inside of them, not only is there less soil compaction, but every square foot can be used for planting plants instead of devoting large amounts of planting area for paths like one sees in traditional row gardens.
Our gardens are built out of an extremely durable and attractive reclaimed wood called “Greenheart” that lasts much longer than the lumber raised beds are usually built from. These boards are milled from the pilings used to hold up docks in the ocean. Also, since the wood we use is reclaimed, our garden beds aren’t contributing to deforestation!
We also provide a wide range of supplies you might need for your garden, including soil/compost, organic fertilizer, organic pesticides, mulch, and an excellent selection of organically grown fruit, vegetable, and herb plants. Other services include food forests, garden makeovers, and regular garden maintenance services. Being in our unique South Florida climate, one can grow tasty edible plants all year long.
