The Mezza 3x5 Keyhole Composting Garden is crafted from beautiful, sustainably sourced FSC cedar and inspired by the African keyhole gardening technique. It’s an ingenious system that lets you compost household waste and grow fresh, organic vegetables in the same garden. A central compost basket is used in the Keyhole Garden to conveniently place your daily kitchen scraps. This household waste is then organically transformed into nutrient rich soil that nourishes your vegetables. Compost fed soil better holds moisture and nutrients, while using up to 70% less water. Mezza cedar boards are treated with a warm, distinctive water-based stain that make it safe for the environment and ensure healthy, safe food production. Cedar contains natural preservatives that help it resist insects and decay. Boards slide into posts easily and conveniently, with no need for tools or screws. Our innovative posts make for perfectly modular beds, allowing you to design and configure your own unique garden layout and size. Mezza embraces the timelessness of wood with modern minimalist design. Inspired to Give Back We stumbled upon the Keyhole garden concept while researching organic gardening methods. This inspired us to create our own series of garden beds using this African gardening technique. This idea was gifted to us by the African people and so we felt compelled to give back. Thrive is a charity determined to end malnutrition in our lifetime. They empower communities with the training and simple tools needed to sustainably grow an abundance of healthy, organic, disease-fighting foods for life. Vita partners with Thrive by financially supporting programs in Africa and around the world.
