About
Love, Plants, Inc. was founded by serial entrepreneur, houseplant hoarder and backyard farmer, Kerry Gilmartin, to offer plant lovers products that are not only highly-effective, but also organic, good for all soil and best for the fresh food we eat.
Historically, gardeners have been forced to choose between highly-effective fertilizers or organic fertilizers – you couldn’t have both. If they wanted to use organic fertilizers for homegrown food, they had to settle for less than 1/4 the nutrients of synthetic fertilizer options. Synthetic fertilizers are often the most effective, but not environmentally safe or safe for human consumption. Organic fertilizer choices are typically very low in the ’N-P-K’ macronutrients that plants need to thrive, making them much less effective. Until now gardeners have been forced to choose a safe and healthy harvest over a big bountiful harvest.
Kerry saw this unfair choice of organic vs. effective fertilizers as an opportunity in the growing houseplant and garden markets and began to work on a solution. She studied the options, met with soil scientists and soon decided to go straight to the source of the most scientifically-proven, most cost-effective and easiest to use products: companies that create and sell the best products for large-scale commercial organic agriculture. She was on a mission to give backyard gardeners and houseplant lovers access to the very best fertilizers that organic farmers use, so she formed relationships with four of the organic farm suppliers and developed the Love, Plants brand.
Now plant lovers can have it all - effective and organic fertilizers in one place.
Kerry is a serial entrepreneur, houseplant hoarder, and backyard farmer. She created Love, Plants Inc. to help connect humans and plants through sustainable practices via professional grade organic fertilizer products to help plants (and their people) thrive. She is passionate about environmental and social causes, and serves on the boards for Resource Central and Street Business School and advises a handful of start-up CPG companies. Kerry lives in beautiful Boulder, Colo. where she can be found outdoors or behind her laptop, hiking with her three children and enjoying fresh food from her garden.
