Finally, my friends—it's here.
The day we've all been awaiting.
The day that kept us going through
those dreary, chilly winter days...
SPRING! Tra la!
To celebrate the happiest of days...
I'm
giving away a “Spring into Spring” gift to one lucky, randomly
selected reader!
Look! Books! Plants! Seeds! And a tub!
The lucky winner will receive:
The Heirloom Tomato: From Garden to
Table by Amy Goldman. This is a seriously gorgeous book, filled
with stunning photography, amazing history, and recipes, too! It was
the first book I bought when I began my heirloom adventure. (You'll
get a new copy—not mine!)
Grow Great Grub: Organic Food from
Small Spaces by Gayla Trail. This is a great how-to book. It's
the perfect book for those who are land-challenged. Don't have a big
backyard? No worries, you can grow a great harvest in containers! I
like it, because even though we do have a yard, I still enjoy growing
in containers on the balcony.
OK, maybe I'm lazy, but it's so nice to
open a door, pick some herbs, and keep cooking dinner.
Plus—you get recipes! And
instructions to preserve your harvest! You'll really like this book.
I'm also sending the winner some seeds
from my favorite sources: Baker's Creek Heirloom Seeds and Seed Savers Exchange. Honestly, if you haven't visited these sites
yet—please do. You will be amazed at the wonderful selections
you'll find. (Plus, they're just really good people.)
Plus—who doesn't need a garden tub? I
love these little tubs—they're great for collecting weeds,
mixing soil with amendments, and carrying compostables to the bin.
And finally—the winner will receive six, organic heirloom tomatoes from Garden Delights! (Yes, that's me!) The plants still need some more greenhouse time, but look at these roots, my friends! This is why I use organic, OMRI certified Dot Pots. When you plant these babies, you plant the entire pot—and the roots aren't disturbed. The winner can select six plants from the Garden Delights site, and I'll send you the secret code so that they will be FREE.
BUT—that's not all!
Everyone is a winner on the first day
of spring!
Today through April 1, my friends...you ALL get 25% off
any Garden Delights order! Just enter the code GROWING2012 at
checkout, and you'll receive your discount. (If you're in Upstate SC,
please remember you can pick up your plants at The Urban Planter. No
shipping charges for you!!! And, you can find some gorgeous
containers and garden décor while you're there!)
For your chance to win the “Spring
into Spring” gift, please leave a comment below or on the Garden Delights Facebook page, answering this very important question:
What is your favorite garden treat?
Are you a tomato girl? Love flowers?
Can't wait for the first spring peas?
The giveaway begins NOW and will
continue until April 1 at midnight EST. (And if you'd like to follow
this blog or “Like” Garden Delights on Facebook, I'd be most
grateful—but it won't affect your chance to win!)
UPDATE: Because I'm new to this giveaway thing, I completely forgot an important note: the winner must reside in the contiguous United States. I can't ship plants to Alaska, Hawaii, or abroad (and honestly, you wouldn't want me to...those would be some very sad plants by the time they arrived! Sorry for any inconvenience...)
