Following the family garden's success, the Rise team aimed to create a more versatile and affordable offering. This new product line introduces new people to hydroponics and allows existing customers to complement their family garden with a more space-efficient option they could have right on their kitchen counters.
The Rise Mini maintains the same growth technology as the larger version and all the smart features but in a far smaller and more affordable package. With attention to the brand's clean visual design language, simplicity of interaction, and design for manufacturability, our team delivered a new member of the Rise Gardens family. Selected as one of Newsweek's "Best Products of CES 2021."
