The perfect stocking stuffer does exist…
Charcoal as a stuffing stocker is so last century! Here’s a way to stuff those stockings with something way more renewable and recycled that will help you grow in 2025.
The holiday season is here, and there’s no better way to share your love for the planet than with sustainable gifts! CowPots are the perfect present for the gardeners in your life—eco-friendly, biodegradable, and packed with benefits for plants and the planet.
Whether it’s for a seasoned green thumb or someone just starting their gardening journey, CowPots make an ideal gift or stocking stuffer that’s both thoughtful and practical.
Renewable & Recycled Gift Baskets
Never mind collecting baskets to hold the ‘real’ gift that will just get stashed in the basement or attic. Consider using our #12 Square CowPot as a creative and eco-friendly base for your gift basket goods.
- Stocking Stuffers: CowPots retail packs or a variety of individual sizes are a unique addition for eco-conscious gift-giving
- Gift Bundles: Combine CowPots with locally sourced seeds, a small bag of organic soil, and a gardening guide for a DIY grow kit

#4 Round Tall CowPots
After many requests by growers for a 4″ Round pot, our#4 Round Tall is now available. This size is optimal for vegetables that need more time in the greenhouse before transplanting to the field, like peppers, tomatoes and eggplant.
#3 Square CowPots
Preferred for herbs, vegetables or other annuals intended for quick turnaround from seeding to transplanting. The #3 square is great for step up transplants to larger planting containers or direct transplants to ground post frost. This pot is particularly well suited for getting a jump start on cucurbits. Many competitive giant pumpkin growers discovered our pots to give them the leading advantage!
#12 Square CowPots
Used in our own greenhouse for planting bulbs, large chrysanthemums and combination planters. The larger pot size maintains ability to rapidly decompose once planted.
Here’s what we were up to this past fall:
World Dairy Summit
Amanda and Matt traveled to France for the World Dairy Summit as Innovation Award finalists. We met producers, food handlers, and packaging specialists all connected to some aspect of the dairy supply chain from around the world. But we were still the only people in the room that do what we do with poop!
Fall Cleanup in the Garden
We did a lot of prepping the garden for winter and tossing the annual patio planters into the compost. We love dumping out the combination planters at the end of the season and discovering the few remnants of the CowPot remaining after just a couple months!
Scooping Poop from the Digester
We cleaned a digester… Yes, it was as much fun as it sounds! Part of fall clean up around here is ensuring that our anaerobic digester is ready to tolerate the cold temperatures of winter and still keep manure at the temperature preferred by the digesting microorganisms – 100.3 degrees.
