The Schwig's Garden Box offers dock owners a durable, low-maintenance way to grow flowers, herbs, vegetables, and other decorative plants—enhancing any waterfront space. It also supports commercial and municipal applications and can help transform public shorelines, retention basins, floodplains, and otherwise unusable flood basins into welcoming green environments.
Developed in collaboration with Schwig Outdoors and manufactured by Elkhart Plastics, the innovative Schwig's Garden Box features a floating, raised-bed design with a 20-cubic-foot capacity. It offers dock owners a durable, low-maintenance way to grow flowers, herbs, vegetables, and other decorative plants—enhancing any waterfront space.
Beyond residential use, the Schwig's Garden Box also supports commercial and municipal applications, including placement along public shorelines, retention basins, floodplains, and otherwise unusable flood basins. It can help transform these spaces into welcoming green environments and encourage community gardening and beautification efforts.
"We're excited to offer this new dock accessory," said Josh Brown, Senior Sales Director for Connect-A-Dock. "The Schwig's Garden Box expands what's possible at the water's edge—whether you're a homeowner adding charm to your dock or a city looking to revitalize a waterfront."
