Smith Garden Products was founded in 1950 under the name Joe K. Smith. Over the years, the business evolved into a shavings and saw dust facility and later into a "bark business." The business changed its name to Smith Garden Products in 1997 and was acquired by Garick in 2004. Today Smith Garden Products produces and distributes "barks, mulches, soils and planting mixes for the lawn and garden industry all over the southeast United States."<ref>[http://www.smithgarden.com/home/ Smith Garden Products], Accessed April 30, 2011.</ref>
