RALEIGH, (SGRToday.com) - Harvest Garden Pro will locate its division headquarters in Iredell County, bringing 33 jobs and an investment of $120,000 over the next three years to the Mooresville area.

 
Annual salaries for the jobs are anticipated to exceed $70,000 plus benefits. The Iredell County average annual wage is $42,724.  
 
Harvest Power helps communities better manage and beneficially re-use organic waste through the production of renewable energy, soils, mulches and natural fertilizers. The Harvest Garden Pro subsidiary provides and sells tens of millions of bags of mulches, soils and bagged garden products through retail outlets across North America including Lowe’s, The Home Depot, Walmart and independent garden centers. 
 
“Harvest Garden Pro is exactly the kind of company we want to continue to attract to North Carolina,” said Commerce Secretary Decker in a statement. “Its reputation for quality products and commitment to outstanding customer service has made it the successful company it is today.”
 
 
 
“We are excited about this move because it enables us to provide better support to our customers and product lines,” said Steve Liffers, Harvest Garden Pro senior vice president. “We appreciate the support we received from the State of North Carolina and the Mooresville community. Their efforts were instrumental in making this relocation a reality. We plan to get up and running quickly and we are looking forward to a robust 2015 season.”
 
The project was made possible in part by a performance-based grant from the One North Carolina Fund of up to $45,000.
