not often that the thought of really thanking a garden centre pops up but id like to thank the following BRIDGEND GARDEN CENTRE for the fantastic donation of seeds to our community garden and also a thanks for the offer of the ceramic pots when they are ready to go .this centre is in fife near to freuchie on lady bank road and they have a massive amount of plastic pots and trays to get rid off so if your local pop in and have a cuppa and collect a load from george the owner or fergus can help you load your car up

and dont forget your own garden centre may have offers of help to comunity projects so ask

Great! good of you to publicly thank them Munters

I'm going to see if our local GC will 'sponsor' our lottie association in return for advertising in our quarterly newsletter :sunny:

That's certainly a ringing endorsement from you munty. Shame i live so very far away. Cracking good people. Got any particular seeds in mind for next year out of the lot?

still listing them .but we sort of priced them out , average £2.50 a pack and its about 2ks werth of bits they have given us to date .nice folks as well

5 packs peas for instance is £2.75 each so thats in excess of £14 just there. and we have about 150 packs :shock:

Just popped on to see it....it's not too bad! The daughter said it was only just up and running.
They do a huge range of potatoes....definitely getting ours there next year!

Aggie, and Munty, I think your G/C deserve your publicity. I only wish I lived nearer. Good luck to you all. Mrs Bouquet

can you order things off their website

agapanthus · « **Reply #10 on:** September 30, 2008, 22:43 »

I would assume so.

I just went through the site, and I couldn't find anywhere to order online.

Given me a good idea...to ask at our local GCs for my school allotment project

Nice to see you give them a shout out here Munty and Aggy, a lovely gesture

good on them!

Munty's just telephoned them regarding on-line sales and was told that as the site is so new they are still finalising contracts for posting etc. If you would like to buy anything via their site then give them a ring.
