What Our Gardeners are Saying…
“I can’t believe how incredible everything has grown. I actually bought a few plants from the big box store to compare. My tomatoes, peppers, eggplants, and pickles bought from Rita’s Roots are out of control! The ones from the big box store were not so impressive. I’m so happy I purchased my plants from you!”
— Sheryl C.
“The best part is that you’re local, know what works here and will share info and answer all questions, no matter how small or trivial.”
— Lindsay M.
“Lisa and the dogs are in our planting beds at the house every night. It’s been really nice. My favorite thing is pulling in to the driveway and seeing the activity. The food product is exceptional!”
— Matt S.
Hi, I’m Rita.
And the first thing you should know about me is that I’m an unlikely farmer...
I graduated with a degree in Political Science and accidentally fell in love with gardening after apprenticing on a farm in the Catskill Mountains.
A few more farm gigs and several years later, Rita’s Roots was founded in 2011 to help folks in the Lowcountry grow their own fresh food.
