The Eco-Friendly Greenhouse Kit from Burpee was one of the first new products that caught my eye in the 2010 catalog. Personally I like reusing seed trays but I don’t like that most are made with non-renewable plastic in the first place and while I like fiber seed pots they cost more. That said this is a nice little kit if you’re looking for an easy and green seed starting solution and don’t have a dozen recycled egg cartons laying around.
The Eco-Friendly Greenhouse Kit is an all-natural and biodegradable seed starting kit. The kit comes with bottom watering tray, seed tray, Burpee’s Super Growing Pellets, three wooden plant markers and organic fertilizer. The growing pellets are made from sustainable coconut coir and the trays are made from plants.
I like this new kit but if you’ve got some spare time or handy kid helpers I’d suggest the PotMaker instead which allows you to make nice little seed pots with recycled newspaper. The PotMaker is longer lasting and even more eco-friendly than the kit.
