Title: More free seeds
Post by: Lee G on March 20, 2009, 11:54

In todays Daily Mirror they are saying that from Saturday they are giving away 5 packs a day for 5 days.  All have to be collected from Sommerfield.

Saturday - cabbage, carrot, cauli, spring onion & toms
Sunday - bedding plants
Monday - Perrenials
Tuesday - Basket & container plants
Wednesday - Herbs and salads

I have a Sommerfield quite local but don't really need any, but might check them out anyway to see what the sow by dates are, sure to need some for next year.

No Somerfield here - what a shame, but thanks anyway for the tip off.
