“Kitchen gardens” where you grow vegetables and fruits yourself have become a kind of boom in recent years. On the other hand, there are many people who are interested but cannot easily step forward due to space constraints, such as the lack of a garden in the condominium or the lack of sufficient space for gardening on the balcony.
The wooden vegetable garden planter "VegeTrug" sold by the mail-order brand "Dinos" is a planter that allows you to create a full-scale vegetable garden in a soil-free outdoor space such as a balcony or terrace. The unique V-shape with a shallow front side and a deep back side features a design that allows root vegetables and leaf vegetables to be cultivated separately in the same container.


The height from the ground to the bottom of the planter is 80 cm. You can water and replant while standing, reducing the work load. It also has excellent breathability and drainage, and has the advantage of being difficult for pests to approach.

The main body is made of natural cedar wood (painted with acrylic resin), and two sizes are available: S (W103 x D46 x H80 cm) and L (W183 x D46 x H80 cm). The price is 23,000 yen for S and 33,000 yen for L (both tax excluded). Comes with a special liner that prevents soil leakage and enables efficient ventilation and drainage.


Products can be purchased from the latest catalog "Garden Styling VOL.29 2015 Spring / Summer Issue" (issued January 5, 2015) and the Dinos Online Shop. In addition to this, it seems that there is a rich lineup of items for the full-scale gardening season.
