Our Story

Hi There! We’re the Garden Guys, or as our friends like to call us, Randall & Riley. We’ve been friends since high school and have been working together for almost as long. After living in different parts of the world, we realized that access to fresh, healthy food was much more limited than we expected.

First, it was college, where holistic ingredients consisted of wilted lettuce from the dining halls. Later, when we spent time abroad, we found that the closest quality produce wasn’t close, or quality at all. Which kind of got us thinking. What if there was a compact way to grow your own food no matter your location or environment?

Back then, there were few options when it came to growing your own food. You either needed a ton of space and all the right circumstances to have a traditional garden or you had to dish out cash for a high-tech, indoor garden that still took up a lot of space (this time on your counter) and looked like a science experiment. We weren’t sold and knew there had to be a better way.

Enter The Simple Garden. Created from a desire to lead a healthy, happy, sustainable life and born out of a passion from two guys determined to never eat shriveled produce again.

That’s what we’re all about. Bringing fresh ingredients, beautiful design, and sustainable living together into one easy and accessible package (or garden if you will) for everyone no matter where they are or what environment they live in.

We hope you join us on our journey to grow something better.
