When we started the garden, we didn’t really know what to expect. We knew there’d be dirt, bugs and heat. What we didn’t expect is the ironic peace that comes with toiling in the soil. 

Planting more than just a garden—you're planting possibility.

Crunchy, sweet, and packed with personality.

We’ve all watched a child turn up their nose at a perfectly roasted carrot or a juicy cherry tomato. And honestly? We get it. If we struggle getting our daily dose of vegetables as adults, how much harder must it be for kids!

Eating our daily recommended dose of vegetables isn’t always easy - we get it! There are plenty of other food choices out there we tend to gravitate towards, whether they’re easier, more convenient, or just plain tastier. But if there’s anything we’ve learned it’s that adding more fresh vegetables to our meals is worth it. We feel better, have more energy and see our health improve. 

As folks who grow and pick food, we want to see food eaten, not tossed. And we know you do, too! You’ve probably experienced it before: fill up your basket with vibrant veggies and the best intentions only to find your fresh produce, wilted, moldy and rotting.

When we started Back to the Garden Jax, we honestly didn’t know a shovel from a spade. We were regular folks—busy schedules, little free time, zero gardening experience. But something was calling us back to the dirt. Back to the roots. Back to something real.
