The Auk Mini Herb Garden Is Still Up to $30 Off (2025)

i test a Lots of indoor gardening systems throughout the year, and the midcentury-chic oak remains my all-time favorite for herbs. Not only can you plant whatever seeds you want in its coco coir substrate (although it does come with parsley and basil), it requires very little maintenance, requiring only occasional water and nutrients. There are no apps to worry about, or pumps, or pH testing required. This makes it an ideal, no-fuss gift for cooks, gardeners, or anyone interested in growing their own herbs.

I’ve almost never seen it on sale, and Auk very rarely confirms it, so if at any time you were on the fence, this is your last chance—after Black Friday and Cyber ​​Monday—to save $20 to $30 on the bundle (with free shipping!), depending on which finish you choose. It includes a pot planter and everything you need to grow, including pump bottles of nutrients and a bag of coco coir. The sale ends on Monday, December 15, so there are only a few days left to take advantage.

The least expensive style is also Auk’s latest release, whose base is made from 100 percent cork sourced from Portugal. You can also choose an oak wood bottom for $10 more or dark walnut (shown above) for $35 more. Buyers can choose black or white for the non-wooden parts.

“The new cork version embodies what Auk is: natural plants, and natural materials,” Didrik Diemen, CEO of Auk, said in a statement. “Growing your own herbs at home is not only good for you, it’s also better for the planet. Less plastic packaging and waste, and now, another natural beauty option to match.”
