Lightning Pitch: helloSprout – Premium garden kits

COMPANY: helloSprout

ELEVATOR PITCH:

Premium garden kits.

PRODUCT/SERVICE DESCRIPTION:

Our seed kits are made by experts in all of the major growing regions in the U.S. They hand select the right variety of seeds into seed kits. Each seed kit contains only USDA certified organic seeds grown on Non-GMO Project verified farms.

Our seeds are packaged in twist-top jars to keep your seeds protected and organized. Each kit also includes Sprout Tags, which are full-color weatherproof garden markers so you always know what and where you planted.

We take a different approach to gardening by helping the gardener get off on the right foot right from the very beginning. Premium high-quality seeds chosen specifically for your growing conditions delivered in custom packaging designed to protect your seeds and keep you organized all year long.

We started helloSprout after watching many of our friends struggle when they got started gardening. The first point of failure was in choosing the wrong variety of seeds for their growing location. Additionally, they ended up wasting more seeds than they planted due to the paper seed packets spilling seeds everywhere. We created helloSprout to help address these issues and make it easier for people to get started gardening with a high chance of success.
