Fill from up top & let nature do the rest for automated, zero connectivity home gardening
Introducing Garden Stack
Garden Stack’s Purpose
Humanity is accelerating towards 3D high-rise living, while continuing to rely on a 2D landscape of conventional agriculture. We’re on a mission to revolutionize the way we grow from home. Your support will bring this game-changing solution to the world.
Need
Even food marketed as local presupposes the production and transportation of massive amounts of packaging. This food first has to reach you, then your home. Homegrown is ideal, but we need a simpler, more versatile solution
Problem
Current vertical farming solutions are often wasteful and cumbersome. Garden Stack eliminates any need for constant connectivity, pumps, fans, plugs, and apps. Let’s harness nature’s potential without damaging it in the process.
Method
Garden Stack is a groundbreaking fusion of traditional olla irrigation in a modern vertical farm. You simply fill it from the top, and your plants receive optimized, hyper-efficient irrigation. Forget plug and play: Try unplug and forget.
Benefits
Your plants’ roots will draw the water they need through the slightly porous central tube. Olla irrigation is way more efficient than even drip irrigation. Forget over- and under-watering. This is a healthy habit you’ll actually want to keep.
History
Olla irrigation has been utilized for thousands of years, from China to Rome. Remarkably, it remains the most efficient soil irrigation technique to this day, surpassing drip irrigation and rivalling hydroponics. It’s time to rediscover the power of ollas.
Design
Garden Stack features an intuitive, 8-part numbered design that assembles and irrigates effortlessly, turning you into a pro gardener. We’ll provide online tutorials for anyone looking for more detailed tips & guidance.
Delivery plan
We plan on shipping by the end of 2023. A standard Garden Stack device weighs under 2 pounds (under 1 kilo) and fits in a small package—comparable to a board game—thanks to our nested design. This will make shipping that much easier.
Materials & Sustainability
We believe in localized, green manufacturing. So Garden Stack will be 3D printed in-house, instead of outsourcing to an offshore factory. The universe of 3D print materials is bustling and exciting (check out our blog!). We’ll always pick sustainable options.
Add-ons
We’re offering multiple upgrades: a water reservoir for extended automated irrigation; a pro base for water runoff and improved stability; a mirror system for passive light transmission and pest deterrence; and custom colors besides our default terracotta.
Shipping details
We’re dedicated to creating win-win solutions. We’ll match your shipping costs with discounts on Garden Stack accessories like our bonus water reservoir. With shared incentives, we’ll find the best possible shipping solution for everyone.
Background
Daniel had the idea for Garden Stack during the first lockdown and Marta has been supporting in its development since. It’s been a long road getting here, and we’re excited to finally have Garden Stack ready to launch.
