Grow food you'll actually eat. Safe from day one.

Herbs, salads and small veg need clean soil and a safe finish more than they need a big garden, and that is exactly what these planters are built to give them.

Timbac, our own non-toxic, water-and-wax-based finish, is safe around edibles, pets and soil from the day it arrives.

Free UK delivery, and every planter arrives fully assembled. Add compost and plant the same day.

Hand-built in Kent, with a 2-year full guarantee and 90-day free returns.

The full story.

If you’re growing something you’ll actually eat, what the planter is made of matters. A lot of cheap wooden planters are lined with plastic or treated with preservatives that can leach into the soil. Fine for bedding flowers, but not what you want around your basil and tomatoes.

Ours are built to be safe to grow food in. Every Trelush planter is made by hand in our Kent workshop from solid timber, with no plastic liner and no leaching, so herbs, salads and veg get clean soil and a proper root run. They drain rather than waterlog, they don’t rot out at the base like flat-pack ones, and they turn up fully assembled, so you can fill and sow the same day.

For a herb & salad bed with depth, the Sussex raised bed comes in tan or black. For a long, low run along a wall or fence, the Hastings trough is the one. All come in 2ft, 3ft and 4ft.

Every planter is covered by our 2-year full guarantee, with 90-day free returns and delivered fully assembled across mainland UK.

Frequently Asked Questions.

Got questions? We've got answers. If we missed yours, just drop us a line.

Is it really safe to grow food in these planters?

Yes. We finish every planter with Timbac, our own non-toxic, water-and-wax-based treatment. It is not pressure-treated and there are no harsh chemicals, so it is safe around edibles, pets, soil and children from the day it arrives.

What herbs grow best in a planter?

Basil, thyme, rosemary, chives, parsley, mint and coriander all do well. Mint is best given a planter of its own, because it will happily take over anything it shares.

What vegetables can I grow?

Salad leaves, radishes, spring onions, dwarf beans, chard, beetroot and strawberries are the reliable wins. Choose the deeper Sussex raised bed for root veg and the Hastings trough for leaves and herbs.

How much can I fit in each size?

As a rule of thumb, a 2ft planter feeds a windowsill cook, a 3ft keeps a couple in salads and herbs through summer, and a 4ft is a small kitchen garden.

Do I need to build anything?

No. Every planter arrives fully assembled. Open the box, fill it with peat-free compost, and you can be picking leaves within weeks.

Where should an edible planter live?

Most herbs and veg want six hours of sun, so a south or west-facing patio, path edge or balcony is ideal. Because the planters are self-contained, you can move your growing to wherever the sun actually falls.

Will the planter cope with British weather?

Yes. Solid Northern European softwood, finished with Timbac to slow water absorption, and backed by our 2-year full guarantee covering manufacturing defects and anti-rot.

How quickly will it arrive?

Order before 12 noon and we dispatch the same day from our Kent workshop, with delivery in 2 to 3 working days. UK delivery is free.

Can I return it?

Yes, 90-day free returns on everything we make, and a full refund if it is not right for your space.
