The Best Straw Container - January 2021

OXO

OXO was founded on the doctrine of Universal Design, that is the idea of designing products which are easy to use for its largest possible variety of individuals. For OXO, this means designing products for young and old, male and female, left- and - right handed and many with unique needs.

After countless models, heaps of design iterations, and extensive production research, the very first set of 15 OXO cooking tools has been released in 1990. These ergonomically designed applications challenged the business norm, increasing the bar of consumer expectation for comfort and performance. OXO put a new benchmark by producing powerful, appealing tools that individuals of all ages and skills were proud and excited to use.

Over twenty five years later, OXO offers over 850 goods covering many parts of the home. Each new debut follows the original user-focused design process, furthering OXO's mission to make innovative consumer products which make everyday living easier.

I started gardening, and grew up to a crop and dairy farm in Southwestern Minnesota. She was really my first "professor" of horticulture, but that I rounded out my education with a BS in Horticulture from the University of Minnesota a few decades after. Caring and caring for livestock is a lot more than a full time job. My father always joked when I complained, "it is possible to take a vacation anytime you desire, provided that you are back in 3 hours!" I decided farming wouldn't function for me, so that I became an entrepreneur starting a business while I was a Junior in the University. I've owned lots of businesses through the years, but have consistently maintained my enthusiasm for gardening. I wish to assist you discover the best way ever to grow veggies, a procedure of gardening I've perfected over time, a method I call Straw Bale Gardening. If you've ever thought growing veggies was tough, time consuming, and difficult on your back and knees, I'll change your mind completely. My strategy eliminates bending, and weeding, making it much simpler. This procedure allows anyone, anywhere to grow a prosperous garden with a very modest investment whether or not you have soil in your yard whatsoever.
