Love It: Keep Calm Gallery’s Garden Organic Collection

keepcalm_growgreensposter

The young British poster artists, Lucas Lepola and Hayley Thwaites, burst onto the design scene a couple years ago with their graphic Keep Calm and Carry On poster. Their online store, Keep Calm Gallery, now features a wonderful collection of posters, tea towels, mugs, and cards.

This uber talented duo, along with Matthew Green and Lucy McLauchlan, recently put together a limited edition collection of three screen prints whose sales will benefit Garden Organic, a really amazing UK non-profit “dedicated to teaching people to grow organic food at whatever scale they can.”

Garden Organic has a heritage seed library and organic demonstration gardens, including the restored Audley End Organic Kitchen Garden, plus they research organic farming and gardening techniques, teach school children to grow food, and offer a Master Home Composting program. Like me, the organization “believes that active involvement in food production, at whatever scale, is vital in terms of reconnecting people with the foods they eat.”

If you need a reason to add some more art to your home, now you have one. I’m partial to Hayley & Lucas’ poster featuring a list of my favorite vegetables—look carefully and you’ll notice the green letters spell out a message.

Also, check out their tea towel collection—the towels are so fun, they might actually make drying dishes enjoyable.

    I love the white coffee cup with the bit of steam coming off of it on the red tea towel. I think simple design can be really powerful when done well. I really like these.

    Jamie–I’m so glad you like! I think any of these would be so cute in a kitchen. Our kitchen has zero wall space, which makes me sad because I want to hang art in it. BTW, those rolls look so good. Really, you can’t go wrong with pelugra butter!
