Randy Porter, FarmDaddy® owner and creator, had a legitimate problem. He wanted the benefit of organic vegetables for his family, but he didn’t want to pay the high prices grocery stores charge for organic produce. He knew that he could grow his own organic vegetables much cheaper, but because his family often traveled, a traditional garden was impossible to maintain. Fortunately, American ingenuity prevailed, and the Self-Watering FarmDaddy® was created.
