We believe in the power of growing your own food and reconnecting with nature. That’s why we’re on a simple, but ambitious mission: to teach the world to grow. We’re reviving the lost tradition of food and ornamental gardening, empowering people of all ages and skill levels to succeed in this deeply satisfying pastime. Join us and be part of building the world's most gardener-obsessed company.
ABOUT THE COMPANY
Founded in 2013, Epic has become the most followed gardening brand and is the leading creator-led, content-to-commerce business in gardening. Millions of enthusiastic gardeners come to Epic for entertaining and informative growing content across video, blogs, podcasts, social platforms, and books. Through our online store, we offer highly curated, best-in-class gardening products designed to perform well for the gardener and stand the test of time. In December 2021, Epic closed a round of financing from The Chernin Group (TCG). In November 2022, Epic Gardening completed the acquisition of Botanical Interests, a vegetable, herb, and flower packet seed company founded in 1995 and based in Broomfield, CO. The acquisition dramatically expands Epic's product offering and go-to-market channels with the addition of 800+ SKUs and a nationwide wholesale distribution channel. Today, we are a team of over 85 employees and contractors across the world.
