Mike the Gardener's Seed of the Month Club Giveaway! -- CLOSED



Hey everyone! So my next giveaway is for Mike the Gardener's Seed of the Month Club!

Mike the Gardener Enterprises was founded by Michael Podlesny, a 3rd generational home vegetable gardener and published author of the book Vegetable Gardening for the Average Person, who has been vegetable gardening himself for nearly 30 years. Our goal is to make home vegetable gardening easy and affordable for everybody and just as importantly, to make sure you have all of the information and tools at your fingertips so that you can enjoy the most benefits from a bountiful harvest.



Here's some info from the website:
From novice to experienced, millions of people around the world grow their own vegetables. Some do it for fun as a hobby but many do it as a means to put healthy, safe food on their family`s kitchen table for a lot less than what they would pay in stores. With a monthly Seeds Club subscription you can cut your costs even further to as little as $0.06 per day!

A Seeds of the Month Club membership makes building your seed inventory easy and fun.

Grow even more of your own food at a fraction of the cost!

8 packs of seeds for your first month (subscriptions 1 year or longer only), then 4 packs every month thereafter while you are a member.

A complimentary 30 day evaluation of the club. Meaning, you try out the club for the first 30 days, if you are not 100% satisfied, simply cancel your membership, no questions asked, and we will refund your purchase price.

Monthly specials and discounts on other vegetable gardening products.

Join today and you will immediately increase your seed inventory by 8 packs!


Definitely check it out they have a wide variety of seeds and with Spring only a few weeks away it's going to be the perfect time of the year to start gardening!

  19. "It just would not be right to sell you the seeds and home vegetable gardening products that you need, then not give you the right information to increase your chances of success."

    This is one of the most moral statements I've seen from an internet company ever.

    I learned that they have a podcast!

    This would be awesome, I need to be pushed outside my gardening comfort zone(tomatoes and basil).
