About Us

Our Story

At Harho, we believe in fostering a greener, more sustainable future by empowering individuals to grow their own fresh produce at home. Our journey began with a simple realisation: the disconnect between people and their food sources, coupled with the environmental strain caused by traditional farming practices, called for a transformative solution. Thus, we set out to revolutionise the way we approach food cultivation, offering accessible, user-friendly indoor grow boxes equipped with everything needed to nurture a thriving garden right in the comfort of one’s home.

We believe that by offering app support 247, we can engage growers like never before, driving down failure of grows and therefore lost interest. The easier it is, the more repeatable the process to from indoors growing to outdoors.

And at the heart of everything we do and offer.

Encouragement to get children growing again, at schools and at homes with families. Modern tech can now meet an age old process of growing your own!

Our Vision

To empower the UK public to grow sustainably, nurture communities, and make a lasting impact on our planet.

Our Mission

To enable people to foster a culture of care, sustainability, and community impact, one green initiative at a time with the help of Harho.

Why we are different

What sets Harho apart from other grow boxes or home gardening concepts is our holistic approach to cultivating not just greens, but also knowledge and awareness. Our unique proposition lies in our app, which serves as more than just a tool for monitoring plant growth; it’s a gateway to a world of learning and empowerment.

Unlike any other, our app features an extensive Education Center catering to individuals of all ages and expertise levels, from pre-schoolers to seasoned gardeners and business leaders. Through curated content on topics ranging from basic gardening skills to sustainability practices, we aim to spark curiosity, foster learning, and inspire action.

We firmly believe that by coupling the act of growing with educational opportunities, we can catalyse positive change on a monumental scale, shaping not only healthier diets but also cultivating attitudes and awareness towards sustainable living. With Harho, it’s not just about growing greens; it’s about nurturing minds and transforming habits for a greener, more enlightened future.

Our milestones

Company History

Harho’s journey began with a visionary idea from our founder, Ryan Hughes: to revolutionise home growing with the support of an intuitive app guiding users from seed to plate.

Over the course of 12 months, our dedicated team meticulously honed and refined the growing experience through rigorous testing, focus groups, and partnerships with schools and universities. With over 500 grows under our belt, we were primed and prepared to unveil our innovative solution to the world.

From the initial design stages to subsequent releases and continuous improvements, every step of our journey was tailored to deliver an exceptional experience for our Harho growers.

Today, our grow boxes offer two distinct experiences, complemented by regular app updates featuring an expansive education centre. With Harho, the future of home growing has finally arrived.
