"My Veg Plot 2013"
Don't forget to put a description with your photo!
Prize – A copy of
How to Store Your Home Grown Produce (http://www.allotment-garden.org/book/store-produce.php) or
Easy Jams, Chutneys & Preserves (http://www.allotment-garden.org/book/jam-book.php)
I'm going to vary the rules for this competition:
You may have as many entries as you want BUT only one picture per post, please.
This competition will run until
18th September 2013
- with voting open to all members for one week after that.
The simple rules:
You can enter one photograph per post into the competition which should be no more than 640 pixels wide.
It can be anything you want that is related to your vegetable plot.
It should be accompanied by a short title and some description.
The competition is open to all "Full Members" i.e. those with more than 50 posts.
At the closing date we will add a poll for members to vote on and the most popular photo will be the winner.
The winners will receive a prize as listed above and the winning photo may be placed in a permanent photo gallery along with the best runners up.
Closing Date for Entries:
18th September 2013
voting will then be allowed to all members for one week after which the results will be posted.
Full rules can be found
