Though winter seems like it will never end, we know it will! And then it will be spring and we will all wish we had some seeds and a Cobrahead to do some planting of early crops like peas, lettuce, spinach, and radishes.
I’ve got my seeds for these early spring crops! I’ve got my Cobrahead ready! Just as soon as it warms up, I’m going to take it out to the garden to dig out those early spring weeds and make a nice furrow for sowing my seeds from Nature’s Crossroads.
Now one lucky commenter will have their chance to win seeds and a Cobrahead and be ready, too.
To enter:
1. Go to the Nature’s Crossroads website, look around, and pick at least one seed variety you’d like to win.
2. Leave a comment telling us what you picked by 9:00 pm EST, Sunday, February 28th.
Gosh, that’s as easy as sowing peas is going to be in my raised bed vegetable garden!
After the deadline, I’ll pick a random number and count down that many comments to identify the winner of the six packets of seeds from Nature’s Crossroads (an Indiana company) AND a hand weeder from Cobrahead (a Wisconsin company).
Open to U.S. residents only. Please make sure you leave your email address in the comment or that it is on your blog so I can contact you if you win. You do not have to have a blog to enter. Email addresses can be left disguised along the lines of Indygardener AT G Mail dot Com and I’ll figure it out.
One entry per person! However, if you tweet about the contest with a link on Twitter, post about it on your blog, or note it on your Facebook page, you can add a second comment with a link for reference and double your chances of winning! (Maximum of two comments per person.)
Good luck to all!
(And for those who are interested and can make it to Indianapolis in mid-March, the Hoosier Gardener is giving away two tickets to the Indiana Flower and Patio Show which takes place March 13 – 21. Visit the Hoosier Gardener's blog by March 8th to leave a comment there to enter to win!)
