公司概况与创立背景
美国 Gardener’s Supply Company 由 Will Raap 于 1983 年创立于佛蒙特州 Winooski，最初以邮购目录形式起家，致力于为园艺爱好者提供来自全球的创新解决方案。公司早期以堆肥、防雨、节水、有机园艺以及面向老年人和行动不便者的辅助园艺产品为主营品类，迅速在北美园艺用品市场建立口碑。Gardener’s Supply 推行 100% 员工持股计划（ESOP），每一位员工都是公司所有者，这一治理结构也成为品牌长期坚持”以园艺为使命”理念的组织基础。

Gardener’s Supply 在 gardeners.com 设有大型 learn 频道，团队由数十位签约园艺专家组成，定期发布病虫害防治、有机种植、季节性任务与室内园艺指南等深度文章，帮助用户在不同气候与种植条件下获得可执行的方案。公司还为学校、非营利组织以及园艺商业机构提供 Commercial & Educational Accounts 专属折扣，佛蒙特州、新罕布什尔州与马萨诸塞州的园艺中心则为本地景观公司、苗圃与物业维护商提供 wholesale 批发账户与代寻植物服务。

About the Company
Founded in 1983 in Winooski, Vermont by Will Raap, Gardener’s Supply Company began as a catalog mail-order business offering innovative gardening solutions from around the world. The company is 100% employee-owned through an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP), and operates its own product design and small-batch manufacturing facility in Vermont alongside multiple retail garden centers across the state.
Product Lines and Brand Focus
The company’s flagship products include Vertex tomato supports, SunLite® indoor grow gardens, lifetime-guaranteed aluminum corners, and signature cedar raised garden beds, complemented by composting bins, weather protection, water conservation gear, organic amendments, and ergonomic tools for aging gardeners. Product categories cover the full spectrum from balcony planters to field-scale raised bed systems, with both in-house and curated third-party brands.
Gardening Resources and Services
The gardeners.com learn hub features an extensive how-to library written by a team of contributing horticulturists, covering topics from pest control and organic growing to seasonal tasks and indoor gardening. The company also runs Commercial & Educational Accounts programs offering educator grants and professional discounts, while its Vermont-based garden centers provide wholesale plant sourcing and landscape supply services for local businesses.
Customer Guarantee and Community Engagement
Every purchase is backed by a lifetime guarantee: if a product does not meet expectations, Gardener’s Supply issues ecommerce brand credit for the purchase price. The company has long stewarded the Intervale floodplain in Burlington, supporting community gardens, founding one of Vermont’s largest composting operations, and incubating nonprofit initiatives that strengthen the regional food system and sustainable horticulture.
