What makes your product unique?

Each Grow Kit includes soil. In order to protect the soil before we distribute to youth and families we measure out the quantity needed for the space and store it in ClearBagsⓇ. ClearBagsⓇ has helped us ensure we are not contaminating any soil and providing the best quality we can.
