About us

VEG and the City is THE provider for organic urban gardening in Switzerland and for Slow Flowers.

Our goal is to re-establish the lost connection to food and to give city residents the vegetable garden that suits their lifestyle. In our two stores in Zurich (Albisrieden and Europaallee) and in the old town of Winterthur you will find innovative plant bags and planters, houseplants, seeds and fertiliser in Swiss organic quality and much more. You can also buy locally grown flowers with a small carbon footprint. We are convinced that the green thumb is just a rumour. Anyone can learn and cultivate gardening. That's why we also offer over 100 workshops and courses. Our Foodscaping team plants colourful gardens in private as well as in public areas and helps you to realise your dream garden.
