For nearly a decade, ePlanters has been a small family-owned company has been dedicated to providing homes and offices with a wide variety of indoor and outdoor flower pots and plant maintenance tools.

Over time, they began to realize there was something more to what they were doing than just decorating built spaces with plants. They noticed how homes and offices felt when they housed plants: warmer, lighter, more alive. And they also started noticing that the people inhabiting and working in those spaces smiled more, seemed more relaxed. What was going on? they wondered.

Enter Biophilia: Our Innate Connection to Nature

The answer to their questions was: The differences in how people felt and operated in the greener, more natural home and office spaces were due to biophilia, or humans’ innate, genetic affinity with nature. In fact, we learned that although our culture generally sets humans apart from nature, that separation is unhealthy for us. Our connection to nature goes beyond mere enjoyment; it is an essential biological need.

But not everyone has access to the solitude of a rocky shore or the peace of a mountain meadow. Modern life – with its concrete buildings and busy schedules and focus on technology – often creates barriers to interacting with nature. Tiny lots and apartment buildings often put gardening out of reach, and office buildings are designed to be efficient – and sterile.

Still…why couldn’t the natural world and the modern world somehow coexist? What if there were inexpensive but impactful ways of melding the modern world with the natural world?

Building on their existing business, ePlanters are re-envisioning their approach to strengthening the ties between people and nature. They consciously select planters and supplies that:
Support busy modern lives with easy care and maintenance
Care for the environment with 100% recyclable materials
Spark the imagination with textures, colors, and finishes to suit any décor

They offer you hand-picked product lines to inspire you to bring nature indoors or enhance your outdoor space with living, growing plants.

ePlanters wants to help you explore the possibilities of wellbeing through biophilia.
