As gardeners gather the harvest this year, there are myriad opportunities to have fun in the kitchen – from cooking and canning to even more imaginative projects. “There’s a natural progression from the garden to the kitchen so it makes sense that Gardener’s Supply Company would offer a line of DIY Kits,” says company spokesperson, Claudia Marshall.
The kits are part of a new collection of products called “Gardener’s Pantry,” an expansion on previous products for DIY kitchen projects. Marshall adds, “the great thing about these kits is that you don’t have to have any previous experience or special equipment.”
