We’re delighted to have teamed up with Homebase to run this Grand Draw. The five lucky winners will each receive a £50 Homebase voucher. The vouchers can be used throughout the store. As you know, they have a huge range of other products too.
However frugal I try to be each year I always need to invest in supplies for the cottage and garden. Compost and seeds are an annual outlay along with tools to increase our ability to be more self sufficient.
Our nearest home and garden store is Homebase and I always enjoy pottering about in there and checking out what’s on offer.
This year they have introduced a new Grow Your Own range. This is largely aimed at people with small gardens. This is great as often friends complain to me that they don’t have enough space to grow fruit and veg. Homebase is also selling a range of seed collections for smaller gardens – who wants to buy enough seed for a five meter row if you only have a balcony?
There are grow houses, mini greenhouses, foldaway grow bags and a good range of products for the garden. I was really tempted by a super potting bench which I thought was great value for £29.99.
Homebase are also selling the new Jamie Oliver garden range. These seeds and plants are a bit more expensive than the Homebase range but include smaller packs of unusual old varieties of seed potatoes – which are fun if you’d like to grow a broader range of spuds. The Jamie Oliver range of seeds includes some tempting veg that are not widely available.
Homebase also sells a wide range of vegetable seedlings, herbs, fruit bushes and trees alongside their annuals and perennials.
The competition will run from today until midnight May 31st 2011. Only one entry per person please.
To enter this draw just leave a comment below or tweet this post. The winners will be selected at random by June 3rd 2011 using a bit of software cunningly devised by Danny. The winners will be emailed or by DM for twitter.

Ooh fab – I’d love to be entered please!
It would probably be rude not to leave a comment
Quite new to gardening, and very new to the whole vegetable growing business. Grew some salad leaves and tomatoes for the first time last year. SUCH an amazing feeling to walk down the garden to collect veg for tea! We have a very large garden and not a huge amount of time, but really hoping to experiment this year.Love Jamie Olivers ethos, and like the idea of growing something a bit different. How exciting!!
£50 voucher would do me nicely…go Homebase!!!
never one to pass up a freebie! please enter me into the draw.
The new Jamie Oliver range looked really interesting when I was in Homebase recently, I quite fancied the heritage tomato plant collection and thought it was a good idea for small gardens to be able to buy 3 different plants rather than have to have half a dozen of each variety. I’d love to win a voucher to get something I wouldn’t normally consider trying. Great competition :o)
As you know Fiona I live nowhere near a Homebase, ( or anything else actually) but hey, my car would find one and I could make good use of a voucher. Cheers
We’ve retired, re-wired and re-decorated the house, and removed 25years accumulation of trees and shrubs to replace the old garage with a summerhouse/pottering place. Now we’ve started to rescue the garden and the car can finds its own way to Homebase – a £50 voucher would make for a bumper visit!
I read your blog for relaxation – you make me feel Very Lazy!
ohhhh!! Have been a very secret lurker on this site for so many many months now (is it sad to check every day (and sometimes twice a day) for an update on this site?)
Would love to win something. Currently doing up my tiny place and my poor garden is covered in bin bags and one of the fur babies thought it would be a good idea to sit on top of my plastic mini greenhouse and then through the covering.. lets just say I’ve never seen a cat move so fast!
here’s hoping I get good karma for not ordering a skip due to the bumblebee nest in one of the garden rubbish bags! 🙂 🙂
Love this site, makes me happy 🙂

easier just to pick post no 51! 😉
