Contest Winner
In the absence of a PriceWaterhouse Cooper representative, I wrote the contestant’s names on little slips of paper, folded the slips in half, and placed them all in a pottery bowl. Then I swirled them around till they felt done and drew out a name- and the winner is…
Jennie! Congratulations and I’ll be contacting you by email so that we can try to tailor the seed choice to your area. And thank you to everyone who came to read my blog over the past year and to everyone who left a comment. I’ll leave you with a quote from Marcel Proust, my favorite author:
“Let us be grateful to people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.”
Wish me Happy Anniversary and maybe score free Seeds!
May 28th is this blog’s one-year anniversary and to commemorate the event, I’m going to give away some seeds from our collection to one lucky person. What you need to do if you want to try for the seeds is write a 500 word essay on why we should all be planting our own gardens- no, just kidding. Just leave a comment on this post and 24 hours from now, I’ll throw all your names into a rotating compost bin, tumble you around for awhile, and then draw out one slightly dirty winner. Just kidding on that too, but I will choose someone in a random drawing.
Last year we had great success with our corn and lima beans and I saved some of the seeds from both of those crops so a selection of them will be included in the prize. Also some different varieties of flower seeds and other vegetables; if the winner will tell me where they live, we might be able to tailor the prize to their growing area. Sound good? Then get commenting and bonne chance!
