Turn Your Passion into Profit

Generate Income From Your Garden

We want to promote gardening in the United States, especially gardens that are designed for discussion, contemplation, and other activities beyond simply displaying plants. This can make the garden a source of revenue for the owner.

The garden industry is expected to grow at a rate second only to the IT industry, at 5.9% or about $5 billion per year. This means that the industry is worth almost $90 billion, which is a lot of tomatoes! Anyone who can plant a seed, from the casual gardener to the professional scientist, has the opportunity to get involved in this industry. It is especially worth considering for young people, as we continue to grapple with the question of how to properly steward our planet.

Welcome to Escape Designs, your dedicated garden design and consultation team specializing in crafting contemplative spaces for personal escape and stimulating group philosophical discussions. With our innovative approach and unique product applications, we redefine the art of garden design, delivering bespoke creations that are unparalleled in the industry.

Philosophy is interwoven into the very fabric of our Escapes. By design, our gardens spark curiosity and invite profound discussions among individuals. These spaces serve as catalysts for intellectual growth, encouraging visitors to ponder life’s big questions while enjoying the serenity and tranquility of their surroundings. Our gardens are not just places for solitude and meditation but vibrant hubs of thought and interaction.

Garden Revenue Streams

There are many potential revenue streams for people with backyard gardens or other spaces for gardening. In addition to the obvious choices of vegetables, herbs, and microgreens, backyard gardens can be used to host events such as yoga classes. More elaborate gardens could charge admission for tours. There is also the opportunity to develop and sell products made from the plants in your garden. For example, in Florida, bamboo is one of the most versatile plants on the planet, but it is underutilized. We have only just scratched the surface of the potential revenue streams that are available to gardeners.

At Escape Designs, we believe in the transformative power of nature. Inspired by the concept of creating small sanctuaries or escapes within landscapes, our name reflects our mission to provide serene havens for individuals seeking solace from the daily stresses of life. Whether it’s a few square feet or a grander scale, we help you skillfully design spaces where one can immerse themselves, sit back, and contemplate nature’s beauty.

Our Focus Is On You

We are firmly convinced there is opportunity for developing discussions and even philosophical discussions in your own backyard. We believe this could be a large revenue source as people discover the intimate connection with others exploring metaphysical ideas along with physical beauty.

This blog is focused on helping gardeners of all levels generate income from their gardens. We will share perspectives, problems, and solutions to help you develop a small enterprise in your backyard. We also want to create a support network where gardeners can ask for and offer help. Gardeners are known for their sharing nature, and we are confident that this community of backyard farmers will be a valuable resource for everyone involved.

Our gardens are more than just visually stunning; they are ecologically conscious and sustainable. By carefully selecting plantings that enrich both the native soil and the air, we create harmonious ecosystems that thrive in their natural surroundings. Through our meticulous use of natural materials such as stone, bamboo, wood, and traditional elements like steel, we curate a diverse tapestry of colors, shapes, and textures. These captivating features not only enhance our plantings but also attract enchanting butterflies and other wildlife, adding an extra layer of enchantment to your escape.

Ways That Gardeners Can Generate Income

Here are some specific ways that gardeners can generate income from their gardens:

  • Sell produce: This is the most obvious way to make money from a garden. You can sell your produce at farmers markets, online, or directly to local restaurants or grocery stores.
  • Host events: If you have a beautiful or unique garden, you can host events such as yoga classes, weddings, or corporate retreats. You can charge admission to these events or sell food and drinks.
  • Teach gardening classes: If you are an experienced gardener, you can teach gardening classes at your local community center, garden shop, or online. You can charge a fee for these classes.
  • Write a gardening blog or book: If you have a passion for gardening and a knack for writing, you can start a gardening blog or write a gardening book. You can make money through advertising, book sales, or speaking engagements.
  • Create and sell gardening products: If you are creative and have a knack for business, you can create and sell gardening products such as handmade pots, tools, or fertilizers. You can sell these products online or at local stores.

Inspired by mathematical principles such as the Fibonacci relationships, pi, and e, our designs incorporate curves, elevation changes, and proportions that mirror the organic beauty found in the natural world. Furthermore, we draw inspiration from various methodologies, including Feng shui and Wabi-Sabi, to ensure our spatial escapes provide nourishment for the mind, body, and soul of humans, plants, and animals alike.
