What plastic alternatives are you offering to your customers?
We began manufacturing CowPots as a way to better manage the nutrient rich cow manure on our farm. Manure is a renewable resource, produced on our farm everyday. CowPots are a real contender to plastic as a true, biodegradable alternative. CowPots are 'the pots you plant' and your customers will be left with nothing to throw away when they transplant their seedlings. Available as both retail packs or in bulk wholesale pots, we have a size and a quantity to match your needs.
Plastic Alternative, Peat Free & RENEWABLE

Committed to high quality, biodegradable, plantable pot! Made from COW manure! CowPots were created by a family of dairy farmers in East Canaan, Connecticut. First and foremost the Freunds maintain a healthy and happy herd of 260 Holstein dairy cows. The cows spend the summers grazing out on the pasture and winters in the barns. Besides producing delicious and fresh milk, the cows also produce a lot of manure. The farmers needed an environmentally safe and sustainable way to manage the manure produced on the farm. Farmer Matt decided to see if he could make a horticultural planting pot out of the manure from his farm. The first batch was mixed up in a pot on the stove and cooked in the farmer's wife's toaster oven.
