Who We Are
Thriving Design was founded in 2014 by Jason Rider in his basement (of course). He had an idea for a gadget that would make growing plants easier and more fun. He imagined a small but mighty clip that could easily snap on his garden stakes - eliminating frustration of single size tomato cages and twist ties. He used a 3D printer for the design and prototype of the first C-BITE. Many iterations later his creation, the C-BITE "Radially Slotted Annular Coupling System" is officially a patented thing as of December 2019, with FIVE independent claims.
Today it’s a family business, his sister Morgan joined the team in 2020 to help spread the love and joy of gardening.
Launching a new business during a pandemic might seem crazy, but now more than ever we need to take care of ourselves, each other and the communities where we live. Growing plants to eat and enjoy nourishes both the body and soul.
