Bamboo from Georgia + an Entrepreneur from Nebraska = Made in America
Dr. Jim Kramer, Founder of Better Trick, Inc. believes in “homemade”. Dr. Kramer grew up on the vast gracious prairie of America’s heartland where determination, integrity, and optimism are the only route to success. For one hundred years, these three American attributes have provided abundant nutrition and sustenance to every corner of the world.
America’s Midwestern prairie has become a global icon, portraying to all that hard work, integrity, and optimism are the proven pathway to a better tomorrow. With his children’s future informing every thought, Dr. Kramer brings these American attributes to every endeavor. Every Better Trick product is crafted with integrity with a strong preference toward made in the USA.
Dr. Kramer’s awareness of the grotesque mountains of discarded plastics for which we have no means of disposal has led him to seek alternative, non-polluting, sustainable materials readily available here in America.
This ambitious quest has led him to the expansive forests of bamboo that stretch beyond horizons throughout much of America’s south. Bamboo, rarely thought of as a modern material, is abundantly suitable when combined with midwestern determination, integrity, and optimism.
Better Trick’s flagship product utilizes handsome sections of bamboo to minimize the quantity of heavy and wasteful volumes of potting soil, water and nutrients otherwise required to fill flower pots and planters. It combines creative innovation with an ancient, sustainable material to elegantly resolve a problem faced by every gardener.
Better Trick understands the complexities of contemporary international supply chains, transportation, and ‘just in time’ deliveries. Better Trick also understands that ‘homemade’ minimizes complexity, provides jobs in our communities, builds trust regardless of differing world views, and enhances the prospect of a better tomorrow.
At Better Trick we will always prefer products homemade right here in the USA.
