Who We Are
The Indoor Outdoor Gardener was born on April 4, 1974. Its parents, Peter and Helena, were teachers going for their Ph.D in Linguistics and they had a passionate hobby…indoor plants. Plants gave us the opportunity to relax our brains and in two years, we had slightly over 400 plants growing in our basement under fluorescent lights. Finally, we decided to see if we could sell our plants ( in 4” pots) for .25 to local stores . And that was our beginning. Six months later, we opened half a store (using our life savings of $2000.00.) In between our very busy schedules, we managed to be there 7 days a week splitting our shifts. We called ourselves The Indoor Gardener.
One year later, we not only increased the size of our store, but also our family. Eva, our first daughter (we have 3 girls and one boy) was born, and many years later, Eva began to work in the store and became fascinated with hydroponics, irrigation systems and lighting. Peter was her mentor and now Eva is filling the shoes of her Dad who passed away in 2006. In 1977, we moved to larger quarters, and our customers began calling us The Indoor Outdoor Gardener and the name stuck. And our family increased again with little Peter being born. Out customers chided us saying “You sure know the right fertilizers to use.”
