The 'Urban Garden Planter' has been designed by Troy Dunn as a dual-purpose solution for gardeners that will help to support their interest in growing plants and reducing plastic waste in the environment.
The planter is crafted from recycled plastic that has been sourced from the Great Pacific Garbage Patch to help get some of the material out of the water and transform it into something beneficial to boot. The unit consists of three different components including a synthetic cork base to protect from damage along with a water reservoir to prevent overwatering and a soil vessel for holding the plant in place.
The 'Urban Garden Planter' is rounded out with a nesting design that allows for stacking as well as staggered mounting to suit virtually any space of any size.
