At this time of year, we would normally be meeting customers, press and fellow garden supply companies at the world’s most famous flower show, RHS Chelsea. But this May, for obvious reasons, we’re having to give it a miss.

Instead we’re proud to be taking part in the Virtual RHS Chelsea Flower Show as an exhibitor, showcasing photographs from previous shows on our social media channels and also running exciting competitions on our Twitter, Facebook and Instagram channels.

We’ve teamed up with our RHS Chelsea neighbours - their stands have been near ours at previous shows – to offer some amazing grow-your-own veg prizes for three lucky Twitter, Facebook and Instragram followers (one winner on each channel).

• Wool Compost – you’re going to need the best compost to grow veggies in, so we are giving each lucky winner three bags of Wool Compost for Vegetables & Salads, and two bags of Wool Composts for Seeds worth £48.95!

• Franchi Seeds Vegetable Growing Survival Kit – Vegetable seed pack containing 12 easy-to-grow nutritious container seed varieties for sowing or harvesting every month of the year to help feed your family, including varieties for preserving or storing over winter. From Franchi Seeds and worth £21.99!

• Two pairs of gloves from the Glove Specialists - a pair of Red Back Gloves (textured-latex palm with a breathable back makes this the perfect weeding glove, with excellent fit, grip and great protection) and a pair of Easy Fit Gloves (strong yet soft and light, amazingly tactile gardening glove, in stretchy black nylon with a strong black polyurethane palm. Perfect for handling compost, pricking out, planting and potting, weeding and cleaning up around the garden, even changing the plug or oil on the lawnmower!) Worth £11!

• Vegebag from Vegepod UK – This amazing product is a finalist in the RHS Chelsea Garden Product of the Year. Vegepod UK is giving each lucky winner a small Vegebag. Their signature mesh provides amazing growth rates as well as protecting against wildlife, pets, pests, bugs and inclement weather. Simply fill the bottom section with Dalefoot peat-free compost and plant your veg. Worth £19.99

    My Devon &Hannah have made a herb & veg garden since the #lockdown and they spend hours of fun watering and weeding also watching the little shoots and leaves appearing from seeds. I've just discovered the garden again myself its such a therapeutic way to gather your thoughts and relax...
