Growing lush planets and flowers can be difficult for even the most skilled green thumb, and Garden Basket has created a line of unique and organic products to make that task a bit easier while providing jobs for the underserved in the process.

The family-owned business sells unique seeds for planting, such as their SeedBallz and Garden Cookies, that make growing a beautiful garden a snap. Each of their products also helps to provide jobs for Americans as each of their organic SeedBallz are assembled by disabled individuals who may have difficulty finding meaningful employment.

A special line of seeds, the Seeds of Hope, also help to support breast cancer research and the pink flowers are a vibrant and beautiful tribute to cancer sufferers and survivors.
