Times are tight for everyone, but growing your own is big news this year and there are lot of good deals and offers around for anyone who is trying to plant up a garden. As such I’m going to be keeping track of the ones I come across that you might be interested in – keep an eye on this post because I will update it with new offers as I find them and take down the ones that I know have expired. Next month there will be a new post. If you find a good offer – or are a company with a good gardening offer to promote then leave me a comment. Comments are moderated, so anything spammy isn’t going to make it through – don’t bother trying!
As I’ve already blogged, the BBC are giving away free packets of wildflower seeds to kids, to make more space for bees. There are 75,000 ‘Be Good To Bees’ packs on offer, and you can apply for yours online or by post.
Elspeth Thompson has written a good piece about growing fruit and vegetables in small spaces in The Telegraph and there’s a couple of offers at the bottom. The first is two free packets of tomato seeds if you send away for the new Plant World Gardens catalogue (although you have to supply 4 1st class stamps for P&P). The second is 10% off Crocus’ April collections of vegetable seedlings when you use the discount code 9690. Follow the link for more details on both offers.
And the Telegraph are also giving away a compost bin – closing date for entries is 24th April 2009.
