About Us.

The Grow Guide is the place to find eco-friendly grow kits and monthly subscription boxes, delivered to your door with a selection of curated and seasonal seeds.

It all began in the Summer of 2020. I was thinking about all the things that make me happy. There was so much going on in the world so I zoomed into the really small but precious joys in life, so I could savour the bigger things — because it didn’t feel like they were in reach yet. I’m talking the really small things. The sound of gravel on walks, cooking delicious meals, and using fresh food from our windowsill and garden.

Food and music gives me something quite simple. They nourish me, and they bring me undenied, unmatched joy. The Grow Guide was born out of those loves.

The idea was turning from a seed into a seedling very quickly. How could we deliver a bit of this joy — direct to our kinds of people?

The sorts of people that care for the planet, enjoys being mindful about their physical and mental health, and have open ears to new music from around the world from communities that live miles away from. So we decided right there and then, let’s start a company. Something home-made, eco-friendly and sustainable.
